These include Large-Scale Building Projects (new school buildings and major extensions/refurbishments); Devolved Schemes; Emergency Works; Site Acquisitions; Remediation Programmes (asbestos removal and radon mitigation); the provision of Temporary Accommodation; Furniture and Equipment grants and the Minor Works Grant.

The level of funding available to each sub-programme has not yet been fully finalised.
