Detailed information on recipients and expenditure are published annually by my Department at gov.ie/dsp/statistics, including an archive of reports from 1998. The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the table below. Work is currently ongoing in respect of the 2021 report, which is due to be published in Q2 this year.
Expenditure is incurred and recorded at the scheme level, and so it is important to note that the expenditure figures detailed in respect of Cork are estimates, based on the proportion of recipients of the various social welfare programmes in county Cork as published in the 2020 Annual Statistical Report. The programmes follow the classifications set out in the Appropriation Accounts.
