With regard to capital costs, the allocations for the regional technical colleges and the Dublin Institute of Technology Colleges in 1988 and 1989 were £3.39 million and £2.39 million respectively. The time available to my Department was not adequate to compile the detailed information by college sought by the Deputy. Accordingly, I will write to her in due course with the remaining information.
