|1The total of 'Administration budget' and 'Near-cash in resource DEL' figures may well be greater than total resource DEL due to the definitions overlapping.2Capital DEL includes items treated as resource in Estimates and accounts but which are treated as Capital DEL in budgets.3Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from the total DEL, since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting.| | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The resource and capital DELs remain unchanged while total DEL is reduced by £73,000 following an increase in depreciation. The reduction in the administration budget arises from the reclassification of Administration budget spending to other current to finance increased other current spending by HM Treasury to reflect a reduction of £390,000 in appropriations in aid and the Office of Government Commerce to fund the remaining costs associated with the OGC’s voluntary early retirement and severance scheme costs arising from the Transforming Government Procurement review.
