Estimates for Public Services 2025
Vote 38 - Department of Health (Revised)

Mr. Derek Tierney:
We are spending approximately 2.4% of our overall operational budget. Any international benchmark would recommend 4% to 4.6%. That is based on our engagement in the context of an NDP review which is feeding into that discussion. Again, it anchors our overall commitment to digitise that service so we await that review.
