Book of Estimates, 2003: Statements.
I do not believe the capital programme is on target. It clearly has not survived these Estimates. I hope it can be rescued between now and budget day. There was some additional money last year on budget day and I hope there will be more this year. As of now, the health strategy, particularly as it relates to the additional capacity in the capital programme, is dead. It is going nowhere. One does not have to listen to the Minister for very long to realise that he will not shed many tears over this, because he has clearly never been a fan of the health strategy.
