Answer

Near cash/non cash splits relate to departmental expenditure limit resource budget controls and are not compatible with supply estimates which relate to voted resource expenditure. Voted expenditure for the Home Department at the winter supplementary estimate 2007-08 is some £922,944,000 higher than the resource budget departmental expenditure limit. A high level reconciliation between the different bases is provided within the estimate.The following table assigns non-cash within resource budgets to the related subhead at the main estimate 2007-08 and the winter supplementary estimate 2007-08.
