National government budget at a high level. This category is looking at budgets, or the planned government expenditure for the upcoming year, and not the actual expenditure. To satisfy this category, the following minimum criteria must be met:

  • Planned budget divided by government department and sub-department
  • Updated once a year.
  • The budget should include descriptions regarding the different budget sections.

The machine readable data is available in really low level. Sub departmental expenditure is available only in PDF.

Reviewer comments

Since sub departmental expenditure is only available in PDF, I have marked the machine readable section as unsure.
