DQ-D46-0056explainedcode printed in some books but not in between
7 code families
7 codes (with the codes below them) are printed in some books, absent from a book in between and printed again later. Examples: 2075-00-911 'Deduct – Recoveries of Overpayments' (absent from 2024-25 BE, 2025-26 BE); 2202-03-102-AI-309-02 'Tamil University, Thanjavur' (absent from 2021-22 IBE, 2021-22 RBE); 2202-03-911 'Deduct – Recoveries of Overpayments' (absent from 2021-22 RBE). The full list is in the master_codes file (columns books_present and books_list).
Checked against the PDFs: for 7 of 7 family/book absences a text search of the book finds no line with that code. A line with nothing to show in a book seems to be left out of that book; this has not been confirmed with the department.
Each code kept once; presence per book recorded in books_list

Budget announcements

Everything the Budget speech and highlights announce (currently the 2026-27 Revised Budget Estimates): schemes, projects, programmes, reforms, subsidies and policies. One row per announcement per budget year, with the primary amount exactly as printed, its kind (allocation, project cost and so on), the speech paragraph and highlights bullet it comes from, and the Demand(s) for Grants it relates to.

announcement_code is permanent: an announcement keeps its code in every budget year, and one that ends is marked is_current = no, never removed. related_demands links the announcement to the Demand(s) for Grants it relates to; blank means not yet linked. source_document names the budget document, and paragraph or bullet, each row was taken from. Some amounts are the current-year allocation, others the cost of a whole project: always read amount_kind.
