The funding allocation for the Education Sector for 2012 and for future years will be determined in the context of the overall Estimates and Budgetary process, a key element of which will be the results of the Comprehensive Reviews of Expenditure (CRE) undertaken by all Government Departments. It is not, therefore, possible at this stage to predict what the allocation for my Department, and its relationship to GDP, will be.
