Spanish term

DERECHO DEL PRESUPUESTO

Spanish to English Social Sciences Government / Politics INHABITANTS\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
Is anybody acquainted with the prhase "Derecho del prespuesto", I am confused because of the preposition in Spanish, which sounds more natural as "Derecho AL presupuesto". Should I translate the phrase as "The bugetary right", "the right of the budget"? Because the right to budget allocations would rather correspond in Spanish to "derecho a asignaciones presupuestarias".

The context is the following:

Dada la vastedad del interrogante me centraré aquí en una de las facetas más complejas de la política fiscal: el derecho del presupuesto, en cuanto técnica legal para asignar recursos públicos.

Thanks!
Proposed translations (English)
4 +4 budgetary law

The state general budget law is the legislative initiative the government uses to set its annual priorities. Its negotiation and approval determine executive policies, which impact both the population and the various economic and social sectors that have begun to make their own contributions.

I might be wrong, but the 'en cuanto técnica legal...' that follows made me think of the legal procedure.

'Derecho' might be 'law', not 'right'.

budgetary law

Derecho also means law.

"El Derecho Presupuestario es el conjunto de principios y normas que regulan el gasto de los recursos dinerarios de los entes públicos para la realización de sus actividades."

neutral AllegroTrans : I don't there is such a branch of law; would it not be better to say "the law relating to the budget"?

I don't see the difference. Why six words when you can use two?

neutral Robert Carter : If the question were "derecho presupuestario", I'd agree, but this is "derecho DEL presupuesto", it doesn't seem to mean that when you look it up. I think it's what the asker thought it was to begin with but I don't know what the term would be in English.

Chris (Allegro). That is a rather "reckless" statement to make, as you could not have done much research on the subject.
