On the current expenditure side, my Department's Vote has been reduced by €75m on 2013. This is in line with commitments made under the Comprehensive Expenditure Review. The distribution of these cuts is set out in the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform's Expenditure Report 2014. A more detailed distribution of the funding, including the additional Stimulus funding, will be agreed and published in the Revised Estimates due in December.
