Vaststelling van de begrotingsstaten van het Ministerie van Volksgezondheid, Welzijn en Sport (XVI) voor het jaar 2019
This is a Dutch parliamentary procedure to formally adopt the 2019 budget estimates (begrotingsstaten) for the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport, designated as chapter XVI of the national budget. The budget sets out planned spending and revenue for the ministry's responsibilities in the coming year, such as healthcare, public health, sport and social policy, and is approved by the House of Representatives. The adoption affects the funding available to the ministry and the public programmes it runs, and in turn the healthcare providers, organisations and citizens who rely on them. Its direct impact depends on the detailed allocations, which are in the full budget documents rather than this summary.
