The surplus from the operating section for the financial year ended, together with the previous result carried forward, is allocated in full at the earliest budgetary decision following the vote on the administrative account and, in any event, before the close of the following financial year. The appropriation decision taken by the territorial council is produced in support of the budgetary decision to take back this result.
The deficit from the operating section, the financing requirement or the surplus from the investment section are taken back in full at the earliest budgetary decision following the vote on the administrative account and, in any event, before the end of the financial year.
Between the mandating deadline set in the last paragraph of article LO 6471-12 and the deadline for voting on local tax rates, the territorial council may, in respect of the financial year ended and before the adoption of its administrative account, carry forward to the budget the result of the operating section, the financing requirement of the investment section or, where applicable, the surplus of the investment section as well as the forecast allocation.
If the administrative account shows a difference with the amounts carried forward, the territorial council shall proceed to regularise them and to take back the result in the nearest budgetary decision following the vote on the administrative account and, in any event, before the end of the financial year.
