Vol. 370 No. 10

Written Answers. - RTE Capital Allocations.

16.

asked the Minister for Communications the capital allocation made to RTE since 1982 for the development of transmission facilities and accommodation and if he has received further demands for capital works for 1987.

Since 1981 RTE has generated the funds for its capital expenditure internally or through commercial borrowing or leasing. The distribution of expenditure to individuals projects, within the overall limit approved in the Public Capital Programme is a matter for RTE but I understand from them that capital expenditure on transmission facilities over the period since 1982 amounted to £3.745 million and that £1.853 million was spent on building and plant renewal.

The RTE capital expenditure programme for 1987 has not yet been determined.
