This graphic is a line graph that illustrates the spending trend for public service insurance (Vote 20) from 2009–10 to 2014–15. Financial figures are presented in thousands of dollars along the y axis, increasing in $500,000 thousand increments up to $2,500,000 thousand. These are graphed against fiscal years from 2009–10 to 2014–15 on the x axis.

The graph demonstrates the following:

• Actual spending decreased from 2009–10 ($2,068,107 thousand) to 2010–11 ($1,968,478 thousand).
• Spending is forecasted to increase from 2010–11 ($1,968,478 thousand) to 2011–12 ($2,380,428 thousand).
• Planned spending is expected to decrease from 2011–12 ($2,380,428 thousand) to 2012–13 ($2,277,240 thousand).

Although planned spending is relatively stable from 2013–14 ($2,267,281) to 2014–15 ($2,258,381), it is premature to draw trend conclusions at this time.
