The Revised Estimate for my Department for 2021 as published in December 2020 are available at the below link. This Estimate incorporates the transfer of certain innovation functions from my Department to the Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science as well as the transfer in of certain functions from the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth and the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications.

Since the publication of the Estimate the Government has agreed to provide further additional funding to my Department to assist in the ongoing response to Covid and Brexit. This will necessitate a new Estimate for my Department, which I understand will be brought before the Dáil in the coming weeks.
