Exchequer funding provided under Vote 32 to my Department is in large part paid over to to a range of agencies which are instrumental in achieving the objectives of my Department. The agencies avail of the funding to meet their direct administration requirements but also, in most cases to assign funds, to other bodies or projects.

Information in relation to the individual Subheads and the amounts provided can be found in the Revised Estimates Volume for Public Services published by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. My Department's financial management system does not cater for comprehensive reporting of expenditure on a county basis.
