Vote 10 - Office of Public Works (23 May 2013) Eoghan Murphy: Paragraph 14.16 of the Comptroller and Auditor General's report refers to the calculation methodologies for procurement savings and states: "NPS provided details of estimated savings in 2011 of €46.5 million from a range of cost saving and cost avoidance measures." However, the data is not disaggregated between cost savings and cost avoidance.

The figures are exactly the same. It looks a bit strange that we would be saving the exact same amount on stationery, paper and envelopes in two years. If it is a one-off saving we made in 2011, are we counting it again in 2012?
