View answerThe overall NTPF allocation of funding includes €5m which is set aside to meet administration costs each year. The level of administrative funding has remained the same in each of the years 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. No additional administrative funding has been allocated to the NTPF in 2018 in respect of the resumption of patient treatment commissioning.
