Staying with Vote 11, section 2.3 deals with other debt balances. I assume that there are recuperable expenses. There are salaries, travel expenses, travel pass expenditure and other debit suspense items. What struck me was the difference between the 2019 and 2020 figure under recuperable travel pass expenditure. Was that primarily down to Covid-19 and to fewer staff claiming for that?
