Statistics
Funding
There is a continuing request in Dutch parliament to increase funding of the AP and even a majority of the parliament agreed on a motion to do so, but the acting government ignores it and leaves the AP with far too little funding for the caseload it has. The current budget is 25M euro and 180 FTE employed. Independent analysis by KPMG concludes it requires 470 FTE to do its envisaged tasks.
