My Department's capital investment plan for the entire education sector will be considered in the context of a multi annual capital investment framework covering the period 2016 to 2020 which will be concluded with the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. Details of the investment programme are expected to be announced later this year. Investment plans for the Universities and the Institutes of Technology will be considered in this context and having regard to competing demands within the Education sector. Funding allocated to Cork Institute of Technology and University College Cork for the period in question is outlined in the following tables:
