This table displays the National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy main estimates by vote and statutory items for the current and previous estimates years. The decrease in operating expenditures and increase in contributions to employee benefit plans in the current main estimates is due to a permanent transfer of funds within the operating expenditures vote from operating to personnel expense. The amount of the decrease and increase represents the cost of the employee benefit plans related to the amount transferred.
