mechanisms on the Shelf

Evidence classified into four categories, always kept separate from any score.

How to read this: commitment, verification, payment and carried-over payables are distinct stages — none of them, on its own, is equivalent to "total spending on school meals". The federal transfer does not measure the total municipal school feeding budget.
