Minister of State at the Department of Education and Skills

I propose to take Questions Nos. 171 and 185 together.

I wish to advise the Deputy that my department provided an annual allocation of €2.5 million to SOLAS for capital expenditure on equipment and small capital works in training centres across all Education and Training Boards.  

SOLAS has confirmed that the there has been no allocation for capital expenditure to Tipperary ETB during the period requested.
