There will always be more projects than can be funded by the Exchequer.  As with all capital projects, further development of the CNU programme, including this project, must be considered within the context of the overall capital envelope available to the health service. There is limited funding available for new projects over the period 2014-2018 given the level of commitments and the costs to completion already in place. The HSE is concentrating on applying the limited funding available for capital works in the most effective way possible to meet residential need now and in the future.
