I propose to take Questions Nos. 211 to 214, inclusive, together.

The table following sets out for each Ministerial Vote Group gross voted capital expenditure for 2016, the published allocation for gross voted capital expenditure for 2017 and the updated ceilings for this expenditure category for 2018 and 2019 published in the Revised Estimates Volume (REV) taking into account the additional capital resources allocated for 2017.  The capital allocations for 2020 and 2021 contained in the Capital Plan published in September 2015 and available at will be revised based on the outcome of the mid-term review of the Capital Plan currently underway.

Rounding affects totals

* 2016 Provisional Outturn

** Revised Estimates for Public Services 2017

The Deputy may wish to note that the updated capital allocations set out in the table above for 2018 and 2019 are available for additional public capital investment in 2018 and 2019, as well as meeting carryover costs of the additional capital expenditure measures for 2017 announced in the Estimates.

In addition, as the Deputy will be aware a total €2.2bn. of the additional voted capital resources was allocated to the Government's initiatives aimed at tackling the housing crisis, as detailed in the Action Plan on Housing and Homelessness.  This was reflected in the Estimates for voted capital expenditure for 2017, with a further proportion of the commitment, insofar as 2018 and 2019 are concerned, to be met from unallocated capital in the table above.

Taking account of the foregoing and the further capital allocations made in Estimates 2017 as discussed above, approximately €2.65bn of voted capital resources remain to be allocated for the 2018-2021 period of the Capital Plan following the capital review process referred to above.
