Press coverage
Named in 39 articles since September 2016; number 37 among bodies in the last 12 months.
4 articles from October 2025 to September 2026, against 5 in the 12 months before.
The total counts every outlet in the corpus. The 12-month comparison, shares and spikes use The Daily Star (business pages before 2026) and Prothom Alo English from 2018, so they measure attention within that corpus, not the whole press. Company press releases are left out throughout. A spike is a month at least three standard deviations above the body's previous 24 months. Bodies are matched by name or acronym in the headline and summary.

What each source budgets for the year: a gross demand for grants, an allocation, or a state-owned enterprise's own budget (income, expenditure, net profit or deficit). The tag on each line says which. None of it is spending.

Budget line through the parent body7
Counted through a parent: this body has no budget line of its own, so readiness counts the nearest ancestor's own line (registry parent, or the Division its Allocation of Business entry or agency list names, or the parent two readers agreed). The line is the parent's budget, not this body's, and not spending.

The instrument that establishes or constitutes this body and the year it was made, printed in the source; two readers, each quote verbatim in that reader's saved source. Where the instrument continues or re-establishes an older body (note_a) the year is the instrument's, not a founding date. Class-level rules (Rules of Procedure rule 246) and Allocation of Business headings are not dated events of the body and are left out, as is a provision that only empowers the Government to establish the body (the Merchant Shipping Ordinance 1983 s.4(1), 'may ... establish', for the Department of Shipping).
