Procurement/Finances
The increase in expenditure over 2014 was due mainly to increased investment in construction measures and
the foundation of the German Centre for the Protection of Laboratory Animals (Bf3R). The BfR also made use of its
budget flexibility options, which were established per federal legislation, to create jobs in areas with a particularly
heavy workload in order to be able to process the increased quantitative as well as qualitative demands in a more
efficient and timely manner in the best interests of consumer protection.
