View answerDetails of the funding allocation to my Department are published in the annual Revised Estimates Volume, which is available on the website of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. Provisional current and capital expenditure figures in respect of my Department at Vote level as of 30 June 2015 are published by the Department of Finance at www.finance.gov.ie/sites/default/files/Appendix%20III%20-%20End%20June%202015%20Gross%20Voted%20Expenditure%20Summary.pdf. Details of the actual outturn for my Department at subhead level for 2015 will be published in due course in the Annual Appropriation Account and will be available on the website of the Comptroller and Auditor General as was the case for previous years.
My Department administers and delivers a wide range of programmes and measures, descriptions of which are available on its website at http://www.ahg.gov.ie. In view of the wide range of my Department’s schemes and programmes, it is not possible to provide the information sought. However, if the Deputy has any specific queries relating to a particular project or programme, I would be glad to seek to provide him with relevant information in that regard.
