As the Deputy is aware, funding provided under this subhead is part of a multi-annual funding programme.

The timing of expenditure on programmes such as this are by their nature dependent on a number of variables and therefore monthly, quarterly or periodic expenditure must be viewed within that context.

It is the case that each year the majority of funding is drawndown toward the year end and overall reporting on programme expenditure is then made available through the Department's publicly available annual Appropriation Accounts and related reports to, and appearances before, the Oireachtas.
