revenues: parliament can (a) increase a of line revenue; (b) decrease a line of revenue on condition that it makes an equivalent increase in another. it will therefore vote a revenue level equal to or more than that of the project. expenditure: the state budget is organized into (roughly 30) missions that are themselves divided into programmes. parliament votes on each of the missions. within each mission, parliament can (a) remove allocations; (b) decrease allocations; (c) redistribute allocations between programmes without increasing the total allocated for the mission. it will therefore vote a level of expenditure equal to or less than that of the project.
