Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 June 2014
451. Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the total amount of capital spending on construction projects carried out by his Department and by bodies operating under the aegis of his Department between 2008 and to date in 2014; if he will provide the information on an annual basis in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25538/14]
View answer452. Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the amount of the €311 million designated to his Department for direct Exchequer capital funding according to the Government Estimates for 2014 that is expected to go towards construction related projects; if he will list the projects; if he will provide an update on any of these projects; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25553/14]
View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 451 and 452 together.
My Department is responsible for a wide range of capital programmes, including in the areas of housing, environmental protection, local government services, and community and rural development.
The following tables detail capital expenditure by my Department broken down into programme areas over the period 2008 to 2013, together with the 2014 provision as set out in the Revised Estimates Volume for this year published by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform; total capital expenditure by my Department to date in 2014 is some €69.5m. Any additional capital expenditure incurred by agencies or bodies under the aegis by my Department is a matter for the agency or body concerned.
Specific data on construction-related expenditure within the total of some €8.5 billion in capital investment over the seven years concerned is not readily available in my Department. Given the significant investment involved and large volume of payments in relation to construction activities, compilation of the information requested would require a disproportionate amount of time and work. If the Deputy wishes to put down a more specific question on construction-related funding, including in relation to specific projects, I will endeavour to provide the information sought.
