English term or phrase: Legally mandated spending
Vuelvo a poner esta pregunta en la esperanza de recibir más sugerencias.

Se está hablando de la situación fiscal en Brasil. No sé si sería correcto poner "gasto de ejecución obligatoria" o "gasto a realizarse por mandato legal". Este es el contexto:

**Legally mandated spending has increased rapidly, and without significant reform this type of spending is projected to become explosive***. An important part of this mandatory spending is tied to the 1988 Constitution. Less than 20 percent of the budget is discretionary. Moreover, other policy decisions, such as minimum wage increases, have aggravated increased current spending. Rising minimum wages increase spending under mandatory programs, especially social security.


Mil gracias de antemano por sus sugerencias.
