crèdits (here)

Catalan to English Other Government / Politics
L’import total dels ****crèdits destinats a retribuir el personal funcionari d’administració i serveis pels conceptes de complement específic, complement de productivitat i gratificacions per serveis extraordinaris ha d’ésser el que resulti de restar a les retribucions íntegres del dit personal la suma de les quantitats que li corresponguin pels conceptes de retribucions bàsiques, complement de destinació i, si escau, complements personals transitoris.

DRAFT: The total amount of (credits?) allocated to the remuneration of civil service administration and services staff for specific supplements, productivity supplements, or as payment for extraordinary services, shall be the result of subtracting, from the total remuneration to staff members, the sum of basic remuneration plus work location supplement plus, where applicable, transitory personal supplements.

This is at an early draft stage, as it sounds terribly...but what I am not sure about is the reference to "crèdits" and also that the calculation is translated correctly.

There is a possibility that the "credits" may refer to the system by which the Generalitat makes money over to the universities....but I am not sure.

Any help appreciated:-)

Non-ProZ.com Dec 27, 2004:
More use of 'cr�dits' Acordar, a proposta de l��rgan competent de la universitat, les sol�licituds de cr�dit extraordinari o suplements de cr�dit, sempre que s�hagi de fer una despesa que no pugui �sser ajornada per a l�exercici seg�ent i per a la qual no hi hagi cr�dit consignat en el pressupost, o b� sigui insuficient o no ampliable.

I am of the opinion that maybe 'cr�dits' should be translated by 'funding', as otherwise it seems as if the Gen. is lending money to the university.
