Book of Estimates 2004: Statements.
Within six or seven months, the Minister for Finance has made a nonsense of it and he has made it clear since the general election that he has no intention whatsoever of delivering on it. Sadly, if we look at the provision in the health capital budget this year, it is slightly down on last year, €504 million in comparison to €511 million. The amount needed if we are to make any progress whatsoever on the delivery of the health strategy would be at least twice and probably three times that figure.
