Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin)

Following conclusion of the current Estimates and budgetary process, I intend to publish the 2005 building programme which will operate in a multi-annual framework.

The precise level of funding available to be allocated to the 2005 programme will not be known until the completion of the Estimates process.
