Estimates of National Expenditure

Budgeted expenditure for a given financial year.

Expenditure data used to prepare the ENE publications provide detailed data on government’s expenditure allocations contained in the annual appropriation bill (for the upcoming year) as well as for the two outer years, that is for the three years of the medium term expenditure framework. Information is presented by vote (generally a national government department) and by main economic classification. The ENE publications also provide detailed data on how government institutions have spent their budgets in previous years.
