Vaststelling van de begrotingsstaat van het gemeentefonds voor het jaar 2010

This is a Dutch parliamentary procedure to adopt the budget statement (begrotingsstaat) of the gemeentefonds, the municipal fund through which the national government distributes money to the Netherlands' municipalities, for the year 2010. The fund pays for local services such as education, social support, and public works, so the annual budget decides how much money municipalities can rely on from the central state. The procedure mainly affects the Dutch central government and the country's municipalities, which receive funding from the gemeentefonds. Residents of those municipalities may see the effects through local public services. The description is based on metadata only and not on the full text of the budget.
