The following table details the amount of capital funding provided by my Department to each of the institutes of technology in the years 1998 to 2002.
A limited programme of capital development will continue at third level this year. In order to re-evaluate the overall position and establish priorities for future years, I have instructed officials in my Department to meet with the Higher Education Authority and the institutes of technology to review the entire set of demands in the third level sector, to establish prioritisation and agree re-phasing in preparation for a building programme in 2004 and future years.
