The Gross Total allocations for Met Éireann under my Department in the years 2022 to 2023 are set out in the Revised Estimates for Public Services published by the Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform (DPENDR) and is available at gov.ie - The Revised Estimates Volumes for the Public Service (www.gov.ie)

Met Éireann is a division of my Department and therefore the funding to Met Éireann is included under Administration subheads and with some specific funding under Programme E.

The Department's provision for Met Éireann is provided in tabular form below. In each of the years 2022 and 2023 the provisions provided in the tables reflect the final REV for the Department in that year i.e. post any supplementary estimates.
