The proceeds of the National Lottery are remitted to the Exchequer which, in turn, provides the funds for good causes. Appendix 1 of the Revised Estimates for Public Services, which is published each year, gives a breakdown by Department of all the expenditure areas that are supported by the proceeds of the National Lottery. Policy issues in relation to immigration are a matter for the Minister for Justice and Equality. Programmes for the community and voluntary sector, including local and community development, are part-funded by the National Lottery and are administered by the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government and a number of other Government Departments and Agencies.
