Never said that the regulations made these ongoing expenses 'important' or 'not important'. And my comment was not about how important the expenses was, but about the expenses being "off budget". "In any important way", has to do with the fact that there are different meanings about what "off budget would mean". Ranging from "hidden and not properly authorized expenses", to "not part of the initial budget for the fiscal year". The former would be a very important and meaningful way to be "off budget". The latter, not so much.
