Ministers have been working with their Departments over the last number of weeks to complete reviews of all expenditure under their auspices, including in all public service bodies. These Reports are now being submitted to the Steering Committee for evaluation and finalised reports will be presented to the Governmental Economic Management Committee in September. The results of the Comprehensive Review process will then be brought before Government for consideration and decision in the annual Budget and Estimates process later this year. The question of publication of the outcome of the Comprehensive Review in respect of each Department will arise for consideration in that overall context.
