This question relates to gross voted expenditure - this includes expenditure relating to all Government Departments but excludes anything that is not directly voted for services - for the years 2006 and 2014. I will be interested in discovering how the two years compared, particularly as the level of expenditure in 2006 was supposed to be significant. I will be especially interested in hearing about the areas in which expenditure has increased and those where it has decreased.
