A1, the balance of the Forfás allocation at the end of July, is an adjustment of €2.4 million less €120,000 pay for four staff transferring to EI and €233,000 pay for staff to the HSA which is divided 50:50 between programme A and programme B. This is the allocation of the resources between the two headings, jobs and enterprise and innovation reflecting the specialisms within Forfás. The Forfás responsibility is now being transferred to the HSA. It gives rise to a transfer of costs but also gives rise to a revenue stream which is shown as a saving. A5 shows an additional pension cost in respect of IDA and A6 shows a spend until the end of August when it is being dissolved, resulting in a switch of resources.
