Right, seeing as how there's barely anyone in the cabinet who can scrutinise this, can everyone check my sums are okay?

I THINK it's alright. I've put it here rather than Announcements because it's pointless to have multiple threads and I just want it over as fast as possible...

As opposition leader I support this budget and urge its passing so governing may continue as soon as possible.

My brain and calculator both agree you have two units unused.

Strictly speaking I think "Total Budget Units Available" should be 81, but besides that it looks fine to me.

How come? At 80% economy rating it's BTRx3...

Isn't that one budget units left for spending after moving reserves around? I forget.

Budget FAQ
 
Budget Units? How many of them does the government have?
The amount of Budget Units there are available for the government depends on the BTR and the Economy Rating on the Opinion Polls. The list below shows how exactly the number of budget units is calculated.

Economy Rating ~ Number of Units Available
5% ~ BTR x 0.5
6-9% ~ BTR x 0.6
10-15% ~ BTR x 0.7
15-19% ~ BTR x 0.8
20-29% ~ BTR x 0.9
30-39% ~ BTR x 1
40-49% ~ BTR x 1.2
50-59% ~ BTR x 1.5
60-69% ~ BTR x 2
70-79% ~ BTR x 2.5
80-84% ~ BTR x 3
85-89% ~ BTR x 3.5
90-94% ~ BTR x 4
95% ~ BTR x 5

Any decimals will be rounded up.

Yes, that's all fine. What I mean is, isn't the "Total Budget Units Available" supposed to be the budget units available after putting them into the reserves? As I said, I'm not sure on this.

Hang on a minute, why is this in Debates at all? You only need a vote if you change the BTR...?
