German term or phrase: Haushaltsmittelbindung
"Ein Blick auf die damalige Ausgabenstruktur zeigt die *Haushaltsmittelbindung* für den Unterhalt einer derartig veralteten Flotte auf."

This term is contained in a paper on government military expenditure and the problems resulting from underfunding, particulary in regards to military vehicles. I believe the author is referring to the budgetary resources earmarked for maintaining an antiquate vehicle fleet, but I'd like to receive some other solutions. TIA.
