Plan versus outturn, by spending unit

The state budget act sets a ceiling for every first-level spending unit. This page tracks three figures for each: the plan as voted, the amendment (where there was one) and the execution report.

Two differences, not one

„Spent more than the act allowed“ and „parliament allowed more during the year“ are different findings. A single „deviation“ column merges them and silently picks the first. They are two separate columns here — against the act as voted, and against the plan actually in force.

Coverage is read before the ranking

Only a small share of spending units publish an execution report. The page opens with how many did so for the selected year, because a ranking without that line would assert something the data cannot support. A missing report belongs to the body concerned rather than being a gap here — and for a year still running, reports are not yet due.
