293: Funding of information manager

You could also call this:

“How the information manager gets money to do their job”

You might wonder how an information manager gets money to do their job. There are two ways this can happen. First, the government can give them money. This is called an “appropriation from Parliament”. It’s like when your parents give you pocket money to spend. Second, the information manager can earn money by charging people for information about injuries. This is like when you have a lemonade stand and sell lemonade to your neighbours. The information manager can use either one of these ways to get money, or they can use both ways together.
