Just over 53 billion was allocated for the health and social services which was the second largest allocation by the USA government. Budget allocation for education, defence and debt interests were 38, 22 and 23 billion Dirhams respectively. Housing heritage and environment sector was allotted 15 billion Dirham which was 6 billion higher than the allocation for transportation. The UAE government shared only 9 billion Dirham, the least, for its transportation sector in 2000 while other expenditure accounted for 23 billion.

The provided chart illustrates the accounted expenditure made by the United Arab Emirates in the year 2000.

In general, the UAE authority had spent a whopping amount of 300 billion AED which was divided into 10 different sectors. However, the highest portion of the budget was allocated for the social security and health care needs of their people.

As per the pie chart, the UAE government prioritize the social security and healthcare of their citizens in terms of its budget spending. In fact, a significant portion of the total budget was allocated in these two sectors by nearly over half of the total budget (100 and 53 billion respectively). On the other hand, the remaining half was divided into other sectors. The third-largest budget allocation was used in education with exactly 38 billion AED. This was followed by debt interest and other unspecified expenditures of the country which accounted for 23 billion each, while the defence sector was close to the expenditure on the debt interest (22 billion). Furthermore, a small portion of the budget was divided into law, housing and agricultural industries (17, 15, 13 billion consecutively), while the transport sector receive just 9 billion AED only.
