Answer

$224.60 has been charged to Ministerial Services code 82113 for this trip to date. I am advised that Ministerial Services records the total approved budget for the trip, not what has been budgeted against each category of spend. They are unable to provide information on variances (if any) for individual categories of expenditure.
