As the Deputy will be aware, with the economic downturn, a review of capital expenditure programmes has been undertaken. While existing capital commitments will continue to be processed during 2009 and 2010, it is not possible at this point to approve additional capital grant applications under the National Childcare Investment Programme (NCIP) 2006 — 2010.

I understand that the position is currently being communicated to capital grant applicants, including those referred to by the Deputy, who are affected by this decision.
