What does 36 require?

For every reporting period, and for any further period the Finance Minister directs, the accountable authority must produce budget estimates spanning the entity's activities and deliver them to the Finance Secretary under that officer's written directions. The estimates have to give a fair picture of the financial effects the entity's activities are expected to have in the period, conform to the directions, and come with whatever supporting information the directions call for. The directions are not legislative instruments.
