In my speech to the Dáil on Tuesday, I outlined a number of improvements to the financial management systems which I will introduce from the beginning of next year. Briefly, I expect Ministers and their management advisory committees to manage within the allocations given to them. I intend to publish the yearly spending profiles which are submitted to my Department at the start of the year to facilitate a more informed assessment of emerging spending trends. I will continue to submit monthly expenditure management reports to Government, reporting on overall spending and revenue trends.
