Funding provided to the statutory agencies under the remit of my Department is shown in the Revised Estimates each year and in the Appropriation Accounts, each of which are available in the Dáil library and on the internet at www.finance.gov.ie and www.audgen.gov.ie respectively. In the table below, the funding provided to the agencies in 2007 and 2008 is taken from the outturns shown in the Appropriation Accounts. The Appropriation Accounts for 2009 are not yet published. Accordingly, the figures used for 2009 are the provisional outturns shown in the Revised Estimates. In the case of 2010 the figures used are the allocations shown in the Revised Estimates.

In the context of the recent transfer of functions, the Family Support Agency has transferred to my Department from the former Department of Social and Family Affairs. The position regarding this agency's funding, using the same sources as above, is also included in the table below.:
