Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 January 2026
739. Deputy Albert Dolan asked the Minister for Transport the date on which a supplementary estimate or supplementary estimates was sought in respect of his Department’s Vote for each of the past ten years, and to the date in 2026; the gross and net amount involved in each case; and the Vote subheads to which each supplementary estimate related. [1804/26]
View answerGovernment Departments may need to ask the Dáil for additional (or
supplementary) money to the amount provided for in the approved Estimate for that
year. The procedure for such a request is provided for through Supplementary
Estimates. These typically arise in November of each year. Dáil approval is required in the same
way as for the Revised Estimates.
