The capital expenditure budget for my Department is broken down into 5 main programmes. Expenditure on these programmes, from 2010 to 2013, is set out in tabular form below.

The National Roads Authority is responsible for the national roads programme and I have asked the NRA to provide you with relevant information on the roads programme over the period in question.

Details of grant payments to county councils under the Regional and Local Roads programme are outlined in the regional and local road grant payment booklets which are available in the Dáil Library.

My Department provides funding to both Iarnród Éireann and the National Transport Authority (NTA) for public transport infrastructure projects and programmes. Noting this, I have referred your Question to both the NTA and Iarnród Éireann for direct reply.

Under the tourism programme, the funding provided for this purpose is voted by the Oireachtas for the use of Fáilte Ireland.  I have asked Failte Ireland to reply to you directly with the information sought.
