Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

Wherever there are expenses still outstanding, there should be an account of it in the relevant appropriation account. I think, though, to go back over a 15-year period, some might have existed for two or three years. They would not currently be reported. This note has been around for quite a while, at least ten years. For those who have a particular interest in it, it is possible to aggregate the figures going back through appropriation accounts for a decade, for example.
