Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 28 February 2019
93. Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for Education and Skills the locations and projects from which the €10 million required for the national children's hospital will be taken; if it will come from his Department's capital or current envelope; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerNo Education projects will be delayed as a result of the Department's contribution to the National Children's Hospital. The Department of Education and Skills has agreed to pay, in 2019, €10m of an existing €17m commitment to higher education facilities in the National Children's Hospital. This funding will come from within the existing overall amount allocated to the higher education capital subhead.
