Details of the financial allocations for my Department for 2019 will be made available as part of the Budget Estimates 2019 which will be published on Tuesday, 9 October. Whilst, it is too early at this point in time to accurately forecast the full end of year outturn for my Department for 2018, I can advise that all current funding is expected to be expended in full and no significant capital savings are envisaged at present. All expenditure within my Department's Vote will continue to be carefully monitored between now and year-end to ensure the best use of all available financial resources.
