The allocation to the Justice group of Votes for 2003 represents a 7% increase overall on the allocation for 2002. For example, the allocation for the Garda Vote for 2003 shows an increase of almost €19 million over the corresponding provision for 2002. Similarly, the allocation for the Prisons Vote has also been increased by €15 million over the corresponding provision for 2002. The allocation to the Courts Vote for 2003 is €84.431 million. While this represents a small reduction in the Vote, the Courts Service expects to provide the same high level of service in 2003 as it did in 2002. In the case of the Land Registry Vote, savings, arising from efficiencies brought about by the increased computerisation of the Land Registry, are largely being diverted towards data capture to increase further the computerisation of Land Registry records. This should lead to an improved service for the public.
