ALGIERS, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Algeria's parliament on Monday approved increases in subsidised gasoline, diesel, gas and electricity prices as part of its 2016 budget in the latest attempt by the government to cope with a sharp fall in energy earnings.

The 2016 budget law also included a 9 percent cut in spending, reversing an upward trend in government expenditure over the past years. Algeria has said it expects its energy earnings to fall by 50 percent this year.
