The Net budget allocation for my Department for 2011 for Defence (Vote 36) and Army Pensions (Vote 37) was €882m. The Army Pensions Vote required a supplementary estimate of €15.6m in 2011 which was offset by savings on the Defence Vote. Provisional expenditure to 31 December 2011 at subhead level is provided below: Defence (Vote 36) - provisional
