*        Where available, please provide separate tables – 7.1, 7.2, etc. – for other levels of government

**       Definition: “Direct expenditure” is spent within the administration and its own cultural institutions (for personnel, goods and services, capital investments in their own premises), whereas “transfers” are being allocated to either “other levels of government”, e.g. on the local level, or to independent cultural institutions and organisations, to film companies, publishing houses, individual artists; etc.

***      This category does NOT include public investments into constructions or for the renovation of buildings. It covers e.g. the promotion of architecture, educational activities, etc.

****     When not allocable by domain.

NOTE The diverse field of digital arts could be mentioned either in their appropriate contexts (e.g. design or multimedia) or, where separate budgetary categories exist, specified under VII.
