The Revised Estimates Volume (REV, published by the Department of Finance) provides summary details of programmes part-financed by the National Lottery and disbursed by relevant Government Departments and Offices. The REV provides these details at Vote subhead level and identifies the aggregate amount of National Lottery funding towards the programme in question, together with the amount of Exchequer funding. My Department cannot disaggregate the National Lottery funding. The 2011 REV allocation to subhead B1 (Grant in Aid for General Expenses of Adult Education Organisations) is €854,000. By way of background, the 2011 REV indicates that the estimated total expenditure from subheads with a National Lottery designation is €349.26m, of which €230m is scheduled to be made from National Lottery funds.
