The total capital expenditure by my Department from 2008 to the end of November 2013 is set out in the table. Generally, expenditure in my Department is not allocated at county or regional level.
Table: Capital Expenditure by Sector - 2008 to end November 2013

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Sector | €000s | €000s | €000s | €000s | €000s | €000s |

While an overall breakdown is not available on a county or regional basis, the Deputy may wish to refer to Parliamentary Question Numbers 9969/13 of 26 February 2013 and 51729/13 of 3 December 2013 which gives regional breakdowns of expenditure on Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs) Projects from 2004 onwards and the number of schools that avail of the 100Mbps to schools project respectively.
