COMMITTEE OF PUBLIC ACCOUNTS

INTERIM REPORT

The Committee has made progress in the matters referred to it and has agreed to the following Interim Report.

The Committee reports that during the year ended 31 December, 1986 expenditure in excess of the amount voted by the Oireachtas was incurred under the Vote hereinafter mentioned.

STATEMENT OF EXCESS

A statement of the sum required to be voted in order to make good an excess on the Vote for Environment.

Page of Appropriation Account	Number of Vote	Title	Surplus of Gross Estimate over Expenditure	Deficiency in Appropriations in-Aid realised	Net Amount to be Voted
(1)	(2)	(3)	(4)	(5)	(6)
75	30	Environment	£643,491	£15,790,850	£15,147,359

The sanction of the Oireachtas will be required in respect of the sum set out in column (6). The excess is due to the deficiency in Appropriations in Aid realised. This deficiency arose because of the failure of the Electricity Supply Board to pay to the Department of the Environment the full contribution in lieu of rates as required under Section 7 of the Electricity (Supply) (Amendment) Act, 1982.

The Committee sees no objection to this sum being provided by excess vote.

GAY MITCHELL, T.D.,

CHAIRMAN
