My Department does not operate any capital investment programmes but has a small administrative capital allocation. This is mostly used to support investment in ongoing renewal of the Department’s ICT infrastructure to leverage maximum operating cost-effectiveness with reducing staff resources; necessary replacement of equipment and the development of new software applications for the enhancement of passport and consular services to citizens; and essential maintenance and refurbishment of diplomatic premises abroad. The table below presents the profiled capital expenditure 2013 for both Vote 28 (Foreign Affairs and Trade) and Vote 27 (International Co-operation).
