PESA 2010 section 1 - Budgets

The Government uses budgeting aggregates to plan and control expenditure. These aggregates are Departmental Expenditure Limits (DEL) and Annually Managed Expenditure (AME). DEL are firm plans for three years for a specific part of a department’s expenditure. AME is spending in TME that is generally less predictable and controllable than expenditure in DEL. These aggregates are reconciled to a measure of total public sector spending, Total Managed Expenditure (TME), which is drawn from the National Accounts.
