BULGARIA TO INVEST IN INFRASTRUCTURE

SOFIA, Bulgaria - The Bulgarian government has said it will spend an additional $92.8 million on roads and schools, mainly from its large budget surplus.

The infrastructure investment is the second spending hike by the government this year, bringing the total increase to $410 million, an amount agreed to by the International Monetary Fund.

The IMF is to decide on the extra spending in December when a Fund mission arrives in Sofia, but the agency has previously warned against further fiscal largesse that could lead to "economic overheating."
