Mr. Seamus McCarthy:
I fully agree with the point you make. I am not even satisfied that there is absolute consistency in the way it is reported between certain appropriation accounts. I am trying to do some work on this to try to bring greater clarity to it and link it all the way back through the accounts that national lottery funds flow through. It could be much clearer. To be fair, under Vote 31, the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport, it is probably clearer than it is in many other appropriation accounts. They give the total spend in the categories and the amount of it that is attributed to national lottery funding.
