Appropriations-in-aid are receipts arising in the normal course of a Department's business which, in accordance with public financial procedures, may be retained by the Department to meet the cost of voted expenditure instead of being paid directly into the Exchequer. These include, in the case of my Department in 2019, items such as pension-related deductions from remuneration, amounts payable to Met Éireann in respect of the provision of services to aviation, and receipts arising from EU co-financed programmes.
