Section 1.1.5, on pages 47 to 49 of Expenditure Report 2020, sets out detail in relation to potential Supplementary Estimates for this year based on the information available at that point in time. This section of the Expenditure Report provides a reconciliation between the net voted expenditure amounts in the Revised Estimates for Public Services 2019 and the White Paper - Estimates of Receipts and Expenditure, taking into account estimated Supplementary Estimates and current estimations in relation to additional appropriations-in-aid and underspends.

In finalising the amounts required for Supplementary Estimates the most up to date trends in Departmental expenditure and receipts will be taken into account. Consequently, engagement is ongoing between my Department and other Government Departments and Offices to finalise any substantive or technical Supplementary Estimates that may be required. When this work is completed arrangements will be made for these Estimates to be presented to Dáil Éireann in the coming weeks.
