View answerThe table provides details of the projected yield from current expenditure savings measures announced for my Department in respect of each of the Budgets 2010 to 2015, excluding savings measures resulting from central pay policy decisions. The net amount of adjustment year on year in my Department's expenditure allocation is determined by the impact of any savings measures announced and the offset effect of any additional expenditure provision made, for example, expenditure on increased numbers on teachers in schools associated with increases in student numbers. This fact is reflected in the overall current expenditure allocations for each of the years in question, which are also shown in the table.
