Budget Data Collection Notes
  • All budget data was collected from the "Activity Budget Estimates" reports released by the Department of National Budget in each corresponding year.
  • The 2021 Activity Budget Estimates report was not available in English at the time of data collection. Thus, the 2021 budget data was collected from the 2021 column in the 2023 Activity Budget Estimates report.
  • The budget data is collected from the "Budget Estimate" column in each "Activity Budget Estimates" report.
