Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 11 July 2018
440. Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the specific reason for the underspend in gross voted expenditure of €10 million as outlined in Appendix V of the June 2018 fiscal monitor; the specific projects that have an underspend; the value of the underspend on each project; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31299/18]
View answerThe €10m underspend recorded in gross voted expenditure as outlined in Appendix V of the June 2018 Fiscal Monitor is based on projected expenditure against actual expenditure. My Department’s expenditure is monitored and managed carefully on an ongoing basis throughout the year and I fully expect all the funding allocated for 2018 will be expended closely in line with the distribution across subheads and schemes as set out in the Revised Estimates for Public Services 2018.
