Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 April 2013
499. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the reason for the delay in publishing the revised Estimate volume in view of the fact that three months of the year have elapsed; the date on which these Estimates will be published; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17073/13]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy is aware, public service pay proposals were put forward by the Labour Relations Commission on 25 February last. The proposals contain many multifaceted measures and it has taken time to fully disaggregate the impact on Departmental pay and pension allocations.
I am happy to advise the Deputy that the Revised Estimates for all Government Departments will be published tomorrow, 17 April. This will provide additional details and information in relation to the allocations contained in the 2013 Estimates as published on 5 December 2012 in the “Expenditure Report 2013”. Furthermore, the REV will set out key performance information regarding the outputs and impacts of Programme Expenditure and this will complement the financial data in the Estimates.
