The atomic unit of BDPolicyLab is the verified policy claim: one statement, one value, one period, one primary source, and the computation that produced it. This store holds 71 claims drawn from gazetted budget documents and international databases, each traceable to its source page or series in the data lake. Statements are deterministic renderings of the underlying data, not generated prose.

Machine access: /api/claims (overview), /api/claims/search?q=…, /api/claims/{claim_id}. Store rebuilt with each data refresh, last 2026-07-05.
