Data quoted in the relevant section of my submission to the Special Group on Public Service Numbers and Expenditure Programmes as referred to by the Deputy are contained in a report titled "Review and Prioritisation of Capital Projects in the Higher Education Sector" published by the HEA in 2004. The report sets out a strategy to meet the future capital needs of the higher education sector. The information supplied was taken from Section 6 of the Report, which examines current building stock and was updated as appropriate to allow for the time lapse since its publication.

I will arrange for a copy of the report to be forwarded to the Deputy.
