appropriations


Explanation:
I think "styrningen i regleringsbrev" refers to the fact that appropriations or grants come with directions for usage.

Ref 1: "For 'regleringsbrev' Gullberg's fackordbok svensk - engelsk gives: official document placing appropriations (government grants, votes of supply) at the disposal of the authorities concerned)" (From a previous KudoZ answer by Christine Andersen)

Ref 2: "More direct legislative involvement in policy mandates and plans-via reauthorization, language, substantive directions in appropriations"

agree  Madeleine MacRae Klintebo: "Prestations mått" - jag hoppas den som skrev orginalet har inte fått "särskrivningssjuka". Tyvärr är den väldigt vanlig hos svenska myndigheter.
