Vaststelling van de begrotingsstaten van het Ministerie van Defensie (X) voor het jaar 2023

This procedure concerns the formal adoption of the 2023 budget statements (begrotingsstaten) of the Dutch Ministry of Defence, as handled by the Tweede Kamer, the lower house of the Dutch parliament. The budget statements set out the planned spending and revenue for the ministry for the year, and parliamentary approval is required before the funds can be legally spent. The title suggests this is the Defence chapter (designated 'X') of the national budget. The direct effect falls on the Ministry of Defence and its armed forces, which receive the funding and must spend it within the approved limits. Indirectly, the allocation affects Dutch taxpayers and defence industry suppliers, as the budget determines priorities for personnel, equipment and operations.
