Budget of the European Union 2017

The Budget of the European Union 2017 was adopted by the European Parliament on 1 December2016 and published in the Official Journal of the European Union L 51, 28 February 2017. The dataset presented here contains three elements:

1. data in xml (EN) – expenditure for the 10 EU institutions covered by the budget

2. data in csv (in 23 LV's) – expenditure for the 10 EU institutions covered by the budget

3. metadata in xml.

The data is organised by budget lines. The lines with figures contain information for:

1. the budget year, in this case 2017,

2. the year before, 2016,

3. and the outturn for 2015.

Each line with figures has a reference to the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF)/ Political Category (CATPOL) (for example catpol="1.1.31"). In the metadata file it is possible to find the systematic descriptions of the MFF/CATPOL headings. Following the URI below it is possible to find the Budget of the European Union in its different stages (Draft Budget, Line-by-line, final Budget, Draft Amending Budgets and Draft Amending letters).

It is not possible to provide an XML-schema for the this project.
