The latest departmental reports regarding cost savings were received as part of the 2011 Comprehensive Review of Expenditure (CRE). All of these reports, including analyses carried out by the Central Expenditure Evaluation Unit (CEEU) of my Department, were published on the Department's website, www.per.gov.ie, on 6 December 2011. This overall approach demonstrates an unprecedented level of transparency, openness and accountability, in line with the Programme for Government commitments in this regard.
