Expenditure, funding requirements and how resources should be prioritised and allocated across each area of Government spending are generally considered as part of the the annual estimates cycle and budgetary process. I am sure the Deputy will appreciate that it would be inappropriate for me to comment at this time on any future decisions that may be taken by Government in the context of Budget 2014 on the expenditure allocations for programmes and services falling within the Vote of my Department.
