Budget papers is a Current Series of Budget Papers - Victoria

From 1905 a Budget Statement was issued to accompany the Budget Speech (available in the Hansard). Renamed Papers (including analyses of the balance-sheets . . . in 1929, and Budget Papers in 1945, these publications were slim booklets; from 1965 the Budget Speech was published as an accompanying booklet.

In 1980, three booklets were issued together: the Estimates, the Budget Speech, and the Budget Papers. In 1982 these were issued as numbered Budget Documents, and in 1983 the current title of Budget Papers was adopted, with some numbered and some unnumbered documents included.

Estimates documents were included in the Victorian Parliamentary Papers until 1983; since then the Budget Papers have only been available as separate publications.
