I propose to take Questions Nos. 308 to 310, inclusive, together.
As the Deputy is aware, the Government will be publishing its Budget and Estimates in October, based on the up-to-date economic and fiscal outlook at that time. It will set out the Estimates and all pay and non-pay measures as decided by Government for 2015 and the expenditure ceilings for the period to 2017.
With regard to expenditure savings in 2014, it is still too early in the year to estimate the amount of savings, if any, Departments will be able to achieve over and above the targets set out in the Expenditure Report 2014. It is therefore not possible to say if there will be any expenditure carryover from 2014 into 2015 at this time.
It should be noted that Departmental spending remains broadly in line with profile with gross voted expenditure to the end of June totalling €25.951 million.
