ISTAT has made available estimates of General Government expenditure at current prices by function for 1990-2009.<\/p>\n
The classification of government expenditure by function<\/strong> used in national accounts refers to the COFOG classification, which is structured in three levels of analysis: the first level is comprised of ten divisions, each subdivided into groups, which are in turn broken down into classes. Expenditures broken down by measures and services of a collective nature are the subject of the first six divisions, while those of an individual nature are included in the rest of the divisions.<\/p>\n To simplify analysis of expenditure by function, the ten first-level groupings as provided for by the COFOG classification have been aggregated into six items:<\/p>\n 1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Traditional functions (general public services, defence, public order and safety);<\/p>\n 2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Economic affairs (agriculture, manufacturing, transport, communications, etc.);<\/p>\n 3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Environment protection, housing and community amenities;<\/p>\n 4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Health;<\/p>\n 5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Recreation, culture and education;<\/p>\n 6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Social protection (welfare and assistance)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ISTAT has made available estimates of General Government expenditure at current prices by function for 1990-2009.
