APPENDIX 10.
CHANGES IN ESTIMATES VOLUME FOR TRANSITIONAL FINANCIAL PERIOD, 1974
Cléireach an Choiste
um Chuntais Phoiblí.
I am directed by the Minister for Finance to say that, on the assumption that the legislation at present before the Dáil is enacted, the changeover of the financial year to a calendar year basis as from 1 April next will require the presentation of the Supply Services estimates for the nine-months’ transitional period April-December 1974. The Minister proposes to present the estimates in the following form in the Estimates Volume:
Parts II and III of Vote
Subhead |
Period April- |
1973/74 (including |
|
December |
supplementary |
|
1974 |
estimates) |
The estimates will, accordingly, show the supply which the Dáil will be requested to vote for the period April-December 1974 and the supply which was actually granted for 1973/74. It is proposed to omit the increase/decrease columns from Part II of the Estimates as the nine months’ 1974 figures would not be comparable with the twelve months’ 1973/74 figures.
A specimen of an estimate in the new form is attached. For the further information of the Members of the Oireachtas the Minister proposes to circulate with the Estimates Volume a stencilled statement (specimen also attached) showing:
(i) the 1974/75 estimates by Vote totals from which the nine-months’ figures were derived;
(ii) the corresponding 1973/74 estimates (including supplementaries), and
(iii) the increase/decrease for each Vote.
