Method & notes
The historical allocation series shows how the balance between recurring operations and development changed, without treating budget allocations as actual spending.
METHOD & LIMITATIONSBudgeted allocation, not actual expenditure.
PulseKita uses the Ministry of Finance budget-book allocation series for MOE and keeps the top-level operating expenditure (OE) and development expenditure (DE) categories.
- These are budgeted allocations, not actual expenditure.
- The open-data series currently runs through 2022 and should not be presented as the current 2026 budget.
- Operating expenditure includes recurring costs; development expenditure funds capital and development programmes.
