I.-The financing requirement or surplus of the investment section recorded at the end of the financial year is made up of the outturn balance corrected for outstanding commitments.
The outturn balance of the investment section corresponds to the difference between the amount of revenue vouchers and the amount of expenditure orders issued during the financial year, including, where applicable, reductions and cancellations of revenue and expenditure, plus or minus the carryover from previous financial years.
The outstanding commitments of the investment section at the end of the financial year correspond to expenditure committed but not yet mandated and to certain revenue for which no title has been issued.
