The forecasts of Department expenditure against Departmental Expenditure Limits (DEL) and Annually Managed Expenditure (AME) at the time of the March 2015 budget are published in the Main Supply Estimate 2015-16. The detail is published by HM Treasury and is available on GOV.UK at: Main Supply Estimates 2015 to 2016 - Publications - GOV.UK
