Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Public Service Performance Report 2022

Dr. Patrick Moran:

We will track favourable and unfavourable expenditure across each of those six categories in the taxonomy. At present, as I said, it is mostly around mitigation. We report green budgeting, which is the positive expenditure in the Revised Estimates. We published a paper in January this year, which is the first attempt to track potentially harmful climate expenditure and is focused on those fossil fuel subsidies and public expenditure that have the effect of increasing emissions.
