I propose to take Questions Nos. 211 to 213, inclusive, together.
The Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation 2014 gross exchequer allocation for Capital and Current expenditure is €781.022 million.
My Department maintains an ongoing review of expenditure. Current and Capital expenditure was 4% and 17% respectively behind profile at end June with variances mainly due to delays in filling vacancies and timing issues in relation to expenditure draw-down by client firms of the enterprise Agencies. These variances will be fully quantified closer to year-end, providing a clearer indication in respect of any funds available for carry-over.
The following table summarises my Department’s expenditure to the end of June 2014.
