View answerVote 36 Defence is managed through a single programme with all operational outputs delivered from a single set of forces encompassing the Army, Air Corps and Naval Service. Expenditure by my Department is mainly on pay and allowances, operational costs and capital investment across the Defence Forces.
My Department does not provide funding on a geographic basis, with the limited exception of the funding provided from the Defence Vote in respect of Civil Defence and Defence Forces Built Infrastructure. The table below outlines the funding provided from Vote 36 (Defence) in the year to date in 2022 that relates to Limerick.
