GENERAL NOTE

The 2007 Estimates were presented to Dáil Éireann in abridged form on 16 November, 2006.

The figures shown in the Abridged Estimates Volume (AEV) have been revised in the following respects:

- the 2006 figures have been amended to reflect the latest available information on outturns for that year;

- the expenditure changes announced by the Minister for Finance in his Financial Statement on 6 December 2006, have been incorporated in the 2007 figures;

- the Revised Estimates also contain other adjustments to expenditure since Budget Day across a range of Votes. Overall gross expenditure by Departments on services in 2007 has increased by almost €205m on foot of these adjustments. Net voted spending has increased by almost €102m. The most significant adjustments relate to: Dormant Accounts; Health; Justice; Agriculture; Education; Community, Rural & Gaeltacht Affairs; Transport; Superannuation; and Foreign Affairs. Some details are provided below.

Dormant AccountsThe allocations also include additional spending of €56.15 million funded from the Dormant Accounts Fund. The additional gross allocations relating to expenditures eligible for Dormant Accounts funding are included across a range of Votes and are shown under separate subheads. The appropriations-in-aid associated with the expenditure include a drawdown from the Dormant Accounts Fund in accordance with the provisions of the Dormant Accounts Acts 2001-2005.

HealthHealth Group gross expenditure includes additional provision of €51m (net of transfers with other Votes), arising in part from increased provision for the Early Childcare Payment (€25m) and increased provision for the State Claims Agency (€10m), partially offset by a technical adjustment in the presentation of grants to voluntary hospitals (this last adjustment has no effect on net hospital expenditure).

Capital Carryover Just over €159 million of capital savings from 2006, a reduction of €23 million compared with the projected figures given in the AEV, are available for spending in 2007 under the multi-annual capital envelopes carryover facility. These carryover amounts are provided for in Part I of the relevant Votes and are identified in Part II of the Votes concerned. The amounts involved will not be available for spending on the subheads identified in Part II until the Ministerial Order, required under Section 91 of the Finance Act 2004, has been passed by the Dáil and made by the Minister for Finance before 31st March.

22 February, 2007.

TABLE 5AVERAGE PUBLIC SERVICE NUMBERS UNDERPINNING EXCHEQUER PAY

The average public service employment figures included in this table are not fully compatible with the Exchequer pay and pension figures shown in Tables 3A and 4. The figures in Tables 3A and 4 may include some expenditure which is classified as pay but which has no corresponding public service numbers in the table above. In addition, pensions costs are included in some votes (such as Garda, Health and Children, Education and Science) whereas they are not included in Government Departments (all civil service pensions being covered in Vote 7). This distorts average figures derived and as a result the data in Tables 3A, 4 and 5 should not be used to derive average public service costs.

Prior to the establishment of the Health Service Executive (HSE) in 2005 various hospital and other charges, relating to the former Health Boards, that were previously collected and retained by the Boards did not impact on the Health & Children Vote. With effect from 1 January 2005, this income is recorded as appropriations-in-aid on the HSE Vote giving rise to a corresponding increase in gross voted expenditure. The 2004 equivalent would increase the gross outturn by approximately €480m .
