Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 28 January 2016
72. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Finance the funding he allocated and the funding spent on capital projects and other initiatives in the constituency of Louth-East Meath by project and initiative and by completion date and by cost for the past five years; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3561/16]
View answerIn response to the Deputy's question, the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Mr Brendan Howlin, T.D., announced the Government's Capital Plan on 29 September 2015 which outlined Exchequer capital spending of €27 billion over the next six years. My Department does not have responsibility for allocating capital funding. However, as the Deputy will be aware, a range of projects and initiatives in the constituency of Louth East Meath have been funded by the Government through the relevant line departments.
