My question relates to the fair and transparent distribution of moneys State-wide. I point out that the south east has 9% of the population. Where can we see €900 million within the Government's capital tracker? We cannot see it. The dashboard is useless in terms of showing where money is being spent. In the lifetime of this Dáil, the university sector in Cork has received €300 million but we in the south east have received nothing. I ask the Minister to commit to a new reporting standard and a new dashboard in terms of capital allocations so that people can see where funding is going in the State.
