 #### The revised approach - closer adherence to the Cardano Constitution
 
 ## Changes to how providers are selected
 
 Ecosystem builders and the broader community can now submit proposals directly alongside committee budgets being submitted as block budgets. This allows vendors and builders to identify specific parts of the roadmap or other ecosystem needs they wish to develop or support and propose a targeted request for DRep consideration within the budget proposal(s).

 ### Fund management
 
-The revised process also includes changes to how approved funding with Intersect listed as the administrator will be disbursed. Intersect is sponsoring the writing of a new smart contract with multiple oversight signers to provide the necessary checks and balances to funding disbursements and provide greater stability to vendors. More importantly, it provides far greater transparency with fund disbursements, with the community able to self-audit.

 ## Oversight and Administrator role
 
 As an administrator and oversight body, Intersect, through its members and committees, will provide guidance and recommendations in an advisory capacity on approved vendors and contracts, and support the ongoing development of roadmaps (and supporting initiatives). This also includes reporting on milestones, financial updates, and arbitration (as needed) on a timely basis to the community, and more directly to the smart contract holders.

 ## The Net-Change-Limit
 
 A critical factor in budget discussions is the Net Change Limit (NCL)—a constitutional mechanism that determines how much ADA can be withdrawn from the Treasury within a set period. The community is currently evaluating two possible approaches: a percentage-based limit or a fixed numeric cap. The outcome of this decision will shape how Treasury resources are allocated, making open discussion and community alignment essential. The Intersect Budget Committee will continue to facilitate this process, ensuring all perspectives are considered. The NCL proposal is expected to be submitted on-chain towards the end of March.
