I propose to take Questions Nos. 327 and 328 together.
The total Revised Estimates capital provision for the health service for 2007 is approximately â¬664 million, of which â¬546 million relates to the Health Service Executive (HSE), â¬76.6 million relates to the Office of the Minister for Children (OMC) and â¬41.4 million is in respect of health agencies directly funded by my Department.
The HSE Capital Plan 2007 was approved in early March. Capital initiatives this year by the OMC and for the directly funded agencies primarily relate to ongoing approved projects. Details in relation to new capital initiatives under these programmes are expected to be finalised shortly.
