Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 6 June 2012
669 Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the amount of funding committed to in his Department for capital projects; if he will provide details of the projects and funding committed; the funds that have been drawn down for the projects; when the balance will be drawn down; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerThere are currently no capital projects being undertaken by my Department. Additionally, it is not currently envisaged that any such capital projects will be undertaken by my Department in the immediate future.
However, with regard to the agencies under my remit, a total of €56 million is available for capital projects in 2012. Given that much of this funding is currently subject to, or will be subject to public tender process it would not be prudent on the grounds of commercial sensitivity and achieving best value for the State to disclose any further detail of estimates at this point.
