Vote 6 (Office of the Minister for Finance) had grant-in-aid subheads in the relevant period. The following table sets out the amounts expended by my department from its vote on grants-in-aid in 2007 and to date in 2008.
| Vote 6 Subhead | Description | 2007 | 2008 YTD |
| â'¬,000 | â'¬,000 | ||
| C | Economic and Social Research Institute (Grant-in-Aid) | 3,300 | 3,740 |
| D | Institute of Public Administration (Grant-in-Aid) | 3,500 | 1,950 |
| E | Ordnance Survey Ireland (Grant-in-Aid)* | 5,250 | 0 |
| J2 | Technical Assistance Costs of Regional Assemblies (Grant-in-Aid) | 1,390 | 447 |
None of the votes of the offices under the aegis of my department had grant-in-aid subheads in the relevant period. These include: the Office of the Revenue Commissioners, the Office of Public Works, the Commission for Public Service Appointment, the Office of the Ombudsman, the Office of the Comptroller & Auditor General, the State Laboratory and the Public Appointments Service.
*In the course of 2007 responsibility for the grant-in-aid to Ordnance Survey Ireland transferred from my department to the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources.
