Expenditure on travel and subsistence is €2.86 million for the period January to September 2007 compared with €2.04 million for the same period in 2006. The main reason for the increase is that the 2007 amount includes the expenses of the Probation Service for the full period whereas the corresponding figure for 2006 only included payments from the 1st July 2006. Prior to July 2006 the expenses of the Probation Service were paid from the Prisons Vote.
