Jaarverslag en slotwet BES-fonds 2011

This Dutch parliamentary procedure concerns the annual report and final accounts law (slotwet) for the BES fund for 2011. The BES fund pays for public tasks on Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, the three Caribbean islands that became special municipalities of the Netherlands in 2010. The law sets the final spending figures for that year and approves how the money was actually used, compared with what had been budgeted. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text. The procedure mainly affects the residents of the three islands, whose public services are funded through the BES fund, and the Dutch central government, which manages the fund. It concerns the 2011 budget outcome rather than introducing new rules for the future.
