The expenditure details requested in respect of my Department are outlined in the following table:
Gross Expenditure | 2013 Estimate €000 | 22014 Estimate €000 | Change €000 |
|---|---|---|---|
Vote 36 Vote 36 (Defence) | 668 0 680,4320,43 | 6676,652 | --3,780 |
Vo Vote 35 (Army Pensions) | 2 214,812 | 2 220,990 | + 6,178 |
The 2014 expenditure provision for Vote 36 (Defence) shows a reduction of some €3.8m for the year, compared with the corresponding provision for 2013.
The 2014 provision for Vote 35 (Army Pensions) shows an increase of some €6.2m for the year over the 2013 provision. (Expenditure on Army Pensions is non discretionary and the additional provision is required due to the increasing number of Army Pensioners in recent years).
