BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's new coalition government will pass a supplementary budget on Monday to enable more public investments in the shift towards a green economy, sources said on Thursday.

The three coalition parties agreed to channel more than 60 billion euros ($67.73 billion) of unused debt in this year's federal budget into a climate and transformation fund, three people familiar with the matter told Reuters on condition of anonymity.
