Order Introducing Technical Amendments to the Instruction on Preparation of Local Budget Requests, which Regulates the Procedure for Drafting and Submitting Budget Requests by Local Authorities. Structurally, the order contains clarifications of formulations and references in the Instruction text, in particular, replacing recommendatory formulations with imperative ones (‘may be clarified’ to ‘are clarified’, ‘shall provide’ to ‘provides’, etc.). Amendments are also made to the Instruction’s appendices regarding table formatting and technical notations. Key changes concern:
• Clarification of the procedure for referencing sections and subsections of the document
• Changing formulations from optional to mandatory regarding actions of main budget fund administrators
• Technical streamlining of table formatting in appendices
