1The funding allocation under the 2011 budget and the corresponding actual outturns for my Department under the four expenditure programmes was as follows:

BudgetActual
A. Agri-Food policy, Development and Trade:€383.6m.€344.1m.
B. Food Safety, Animal Health and Welfare And Plant Health€317.1m.€256.6m
C. Rural Economy and Environment€647.9m.€535.6m.
D. Effective Delivery of Client Focused Schemes and Services€298.9m.€285.1m.
Total€1,647.5m.€1,421.4m.

Under financial procedures, savings in 2011 amounting to €29.834m. have been carried over into the 2012 Vote for the Department.

A full breakdown of the 2011 actual expenditure figures under each programme by sub-programme will be published next month by the Minister for Public Expenditure & Reform in the 2012 Revised Estimates Volume.
