Written answers

Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage

The figures on page 244 of the 2024 Budget Expenditure Report refer to estimated expenditure for 2023 and 2024 and they relate to ISIF capitalisation. The figure of €663,850m for 2023 was submitted as an estimate figure for non-voted expenditure to my Department in November 2022. In 2023, I have approved €525m which was transferred to the LDA in two tranches in H1 2023.

The figure of €990,137m for 2024 was submitted to my Department by the LDA as an estimate figure for non-voted expenditure in October 2023.
