Italian to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Accounting / provisions for drawing up/preparing regional budgets
Italian term or phrase: minori entrate
This term is part of the title of Chapter IV of a document listing accounting formalities and procedures in drawing up a regional budget (i.e, the budget of a specific Italian regional council ) - "Minori Entrate e Residui Attivi". This is presumably a specific accounting term.

lower income


Explanation:
The entrate are income or revenues, however "minori" would mean that these are lower than before. Would need to see the big picture to be sure.
I've put income, instead of revenues, because revenues might be interpreted as tax for a local government and not all the "entrate" will be tax by all means.

Notes to answerer
Asker: You are correct with regard to "entrate" not necessarily or exclusively referring to tax income, as this document actually has several sections or headings such as "entrate non tributarie" and "entrate extratributarie". For this reason, I've also chosen income instead of revenues.
