Vote 34 - Housing, Planning and Local Government

Mr. John McCarthy:
It was actually a technical transfer in that when the Estimate was originally done a certain amount of LPT was to be used by those local authorities to contribute to it, whereas in the actual distribution of the LPT proceeds, that changed. If one looks in overall terms, when the Estimate was being set, it was to be split between the Estimate and LPT, and it was going to come to €47.8 million between the two. In terms of the outturn between LPT and the Estimate, it came to €48.8 million. There was approximately €1 million in the difference.
