Vaststelling van de begrotingsstaat van het provinciefonds voor het jaar 2010

This procedure concerns the Dutch House of Representatives' formal adoption of the budget statement (begrotingsstaat) for the Provinces Fund (provinciefonds) for 2010. The Provinces Fund is the central government fund that provides general financing to the twelve Dutch provinces, which they can spend according to their own priorities. Adopting the budget statement sets the fund's planned allocations for that year. The main parties affected are the twelve Dutch provinces, which receive the fund's money, and national taxpayers, since the fund is financed from the national budget. The procedure does not itself change provincial responsibilities, but it determines the level of funding available to provinces in 2010.
