How we transcribed and checked the numbers
The numbers book (Getallenboek) is the legal annex to the budget. It lists every ledger line of day-to-day spending, in Dutch, to the guilder. We transcribed all 1,287 printed lines from the scanned document and ran 3,180 arithmetic checks on them by machine. Where a printed total is higher than the lines above it, we added a line marked “not itemised” for the difference (3 in all), so every total still adds up.
Added together, the 2027 column equals the total in the draft budget ordinance. Search it in English or Dutch below. Every line links to its page in the Dutch submission.
