2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 21 - Prisons

Mr. Derek Caldbeck:
That is the original estimate of €4.5 million. We do a little bit of transferring between various elements of our capital envelope, for instance. As such, we reallocated some capital moneys to ICT due to the demands and requirements of ICT. We diverted that from buildings and equipment in terms of the overall heading and remained within our capital envelope in total. Some of the explanation relates to that in addition to what the DG has outlined regarding the extra demands continuously faced by our ICT section in respect of new technologies.
