2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 1 - President's Establishment
10:00 am
Mr. Seamus McCarthy:
Yes, the underspend. One thing about an appropriation account is that there must be no overspending. That is the priority. One is always aiming to come in under the budget provided. The 10% underspend is about what is usual on the President's Establishment Vote and it is not out of line with spending for similar small offices or Departments.
