Vaststelling van de begrotingsstaat van het Diergezondheidsfonds voor het jaar 2011

This procedure concerns the formal adoption of the budget statement (begrotingsstaat) of the Diergezondheidsfonds, the Dutch animal health fund, for the year 2011. The fund finances measures related to animal health and disease control, and its annual budget statement sets out the planned income and expenditure for that year. The Tweede Kamer, the lower house of the Dutch parliament, votes on such budget statements as part of its oversight of public spending. The direct effect falls mainly on the animal health fund itself and the public bodies and livestock sectors it supports, such as veterinary services and farmers who contribute to or benefit from the fund. The budget statement is based on metadata only and does not reflect the full text of the figures or the specific measures planned.
