In addition to the Supplementary Funds and Section 25(1) transfers affecting the Department’s output appropriations in 2003-04, there was a reduction of $1m in accrual appropriation funding to the Department. This reduction was to remove funding of depreciation for the Transport Executive Licensing Information System (TRELIS) project due to the deferral of commissioning to July 2004.
The net total of Section 25(1) Transfers ($305.088m), Supplementary Funds ($1.6460m) and the reduction to accrual appropriation ($1.000m) transferred/received by the Department in 2003-04 was $304.442m. This net transfer of funds is the reason for the variance in Grand Total of Appropriations. |
