What these reports do and do not say
Each report states its own expense total. Where a report lists components, they do not always add up to that total, so the components are not charted here. Totals are shown as reported, with a link to the page they come from.
The 2025 report also includes a projected figure for 2026. That is a projection, not spending, and it is not a 2026 review.
These pages are highlights, not a full transcription. The complete report is linked from every page.
