The surplus generated by the National Lottery is transferred annually to the Exchequer and is applied to part-fund the Exchequer allocations to a specified range of expenditure subheads across various Votes. The amount transferred to the Exchequer from the National Lottery surplus, together with details of the total Exchequer allocations to the relevant Lottery supported subheads, are published each year in Appendix 1 of the annual Revised Estimates for Public Services (REV) which gives a breakdown of allocations by programme. The provisional outturns for National Lottery supported subheads for 2011 are set out in Appendix 1 of the 2012 REV. The Appendix can be viewed at http://per.gov.ie/wp-content/uploads/Rev-20121.pdf.
