There are no outstanding claims to hand in respect of the expenses for the 2007 General Election. My Department has completed examination of most of the accounts submitted by the Returning Officers. As a result of this examination, in a number of instances Returning Officers were asked to repay outstanding balances, being the difference between the amount advanced and the actual cost. Most of the balances have been recouped and those remaining are small in value terms.
