The distribution of exchequer funding allocations as per the 2016 to 2018 Revised Estimates Volumes for InterTrade Ireland as provided through my Department’s Vote is set out in the following table.

InterTrade Ireland Budget allocations (€,000)201620172018
Subhead A4 7,4657,9608,125

The funding provision to Inter-Trade Ireland is provided on a North-South basis and annual allocations are finalised in conjunction with the Northern Administration. The allocation provided through my Department’s Vote is adjusted proportionally given the joint-funding arrangement in place. Also, as the working currency of the Body is Sterling by virtue of being based in Newry, Co. Down, other adjustments can be necessary, to take account of exchange rate fluctuations between the Euro and Sterling.
