I propose to take Questions Nos. 699 and 700 together.
The Programme for Government commitment is to provide an additional €10 million over the lifetime of the Capital Plan to support the four regional airports which of course includes Waterford Airport, along with the airports in Donegal, Ireland West Airport Knock and Kerry. These airports are already being supported by my Department under the Regional Airports Programme for safety and security related investments and operations. Last year, Waterford Airport received over €1 million in support from this Programme.
The commitment in respect of the extra €10 million, together with other Programme for Government commitments of a capital nature, will be considered as part of the mid-term review of the Capital Plan which has just been commenced by my colleague, the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform.
