The Office of the Governor is financed from Dutch central government funds. So the central government budget contains a separate chapter on the Office’s annual receipts and expenditures. The Dutch Minister of the Interior and Kingdom Relations is responsible for managing the Office’s budget and overseeing its operational management, as for the High Councils of State. With regard to the management relationship, the Office can request support from the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations (BZK).

The Office is not subordinate to any government ministry in the Netherlands or Curaçao. Its director and staff are accountable solely to the Governor. The Dutch Minister of the Interior and Kingdom Relations has therefore no substantive involvement in the Office’s work.

This management relationship is laid down in the Offices of the Governors “Finances and Personnel” Order. The Director of the Office reports on financial and management matters to the Secretary-General of BZK.
