446 Deputy Brendan Smith asked the Minister for Health the total allocated budget for his Department in 2011; and the outturns in each of his Department subheads at the end of 2011. [2136/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Gross Current Vote for my Department in 2011 was €331.610m, of which €275.372m was spent to the end of December, leaving €56m unspent at that date.
This surplus can be attributed to a number of factors:
Hepatitis C Compensation Subheads
Subhead D, Inquiries and Miscellaneous Legal Fees and Settlements
Administrative Budget
The Administrative Budget had a €5m in surplus in 2011. €1m of this relates to a provision made in Subhead A.7 in relation to a proposed consultancy in relation to VHI. A further €1.5m approximately is on other non-pay subheads, such as training, cleaning, office machinery and supplies etc. The remainder of the surplus is attributable to the non filling of vacancies as a result of the moratorium on recruitment, and reduced levels of overtime.
Grants to Health Agencies
At the end of December there were savings of some €12m in relation to Grants to Health Agencies. The main agencies showing surpluses are the Health Research Board and the Health Information and Quality Authority, with small surpluses on some of the other directly funded agencies.
There was also an underspend of €6.7m on the Gross Capital Vote of €16.091m, €1.5m of which was approved for a Capital carryover into 2012.
The outturns in each of my Department's subheads is set out in the accompanying table:
