Table explanation
This table contains figures on the budgeted expenditures and income per task (policy area) according to region and size class in millions of euros and in euros per inhabitant. The presented figures are based on data that adhere to the definitions and classifications that municipalities themselves use in their administration. These data are supplied to Statistics Netherlands through the questionnaire called Information for Third Parties (Iv3). The directives for this questionnaire have been laid down in the Directive for Budgeting and Accounting for provinces and municipalities (BBV).
Data available from: 2017
Status of the figures:
The figures in this table are provisional at the time of first publication. Upon the third publication one year later, the figures will become definitive.
Changes as of 18 March 2024:
The provisional figures for 2024 have been added.
The figures for 2023 have become definitive.
In 2023, changes to the Iv3 questionnaire were introduced. This has led to a break in the time series for the municipal tasks Public health, General provisions including district teams, Income arrangements, Participation, Individual social support, Individual services 18+, Individual services 18-, Escalated care 18+ and Escalated care 18-. For these municipal tasks, comparing 2023 figures with figures relating to earlier years is therefore difficult.
The following changes were made as from 2023:
- Expenditures and revenues related to Centres for Youth and Family must be registered under General provisions including district teams instead of Public health;
- Expenditures and revenues related to tackling domestic violence must be registered under General provisions including district teams instead of Escalated care 18+;
- Expenditures and revenues related to debt counselling must be registered under Income arrangements instead of Individual services 18+;
- Expenditures and revenues related to housing and transport services must be registered under Individual social support instead of Individual services 18+;
- Expenditures and revenues related to day care under the Social Support Act (WMO) must be registered under Individual services 18+ instead of Participation;
- Expenditures and revenues related to the walk-in function mental health care facilities must be registered under Individual services 18+ instead of Escalated care 18+.
Because of the changes mentioned above, municipalities have had to adjust their financial administration. In this process, municipalities have also transferred amounts from Escalated care 18+ to other tasks, Individual services 18- in particular.
When will new figures be published?
The new figures will be made available in the month of March of the financial year.
The figures are subject to revision based on the availability of new or updated sources. In general these adjustments are limited in size and scope. The adjustments will be implemented when new annual figures are added to the series.
Because of changes in the source material, Information for Third Parties (Iv3), the data are no longer completely comparable with data from earlier years as of the publication of the figures of the 2017 budgets. More information on these changes can be found in paragraph 3 under 'relevant tables'.
