The preparation of the next NDP (2007-2013) is proceeding at present. Proposals for investment under the next NDP will be considered across a wide range of policy areas. The final composition, priorities, structure and objectives of the next NDP with supporting financial allocations are ultimately a matter for consideration and decision by Government and the issue of NDP funding for Sustainable Energy Ireland will be decided in that context.
