Vaststelling van de begrotingsstaten van het Ministerie van Volksgezondheid, Welzijn en Sport (XVI) voor het jaar 2010

This is a Dutch parliamentary procedure (Tweede Kamer) to formally adopt the 2010 budget estimates (begrotingsstaten) for the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport, labelled section XVI of the national budget. Such budget statements set out the planned spending and revenue for each ministry for the coming year, giving parliament control over public funds. The main direct effect is on the ministry itself, which gains authority to spend the approved funds on health care, welfare and sport policy during 2010. Citizens, health care providers and sports organisations indirectly depend on how these allocations are shaped.
