National Development Plan Mid-Term Evaluation: Statements.
The ESRI is correct to ask why we spend money building hospitals which we cannot subsequently bring into service. We must have a better match between current and capital expenditure. This is a positive report in that it supports public investment and I hope and am confident that we will not see public investment slashed for budgetary or financial reasons as happened in the 1980s.
