As the Deputy may be aware, the Government has proposed that a ten year capital plan will be set out which will take account of the National Planning Framework. My Department will also take that into account when setting infrastructure investment priorities in the years up to 2027.  This capital plan is likely to be discussed at cabinet in the coming weeks.

On Thursday 12 October 2017, I outlined my view of what our current priorities for investment are to the Dáil and I have also published further details in a separate speech which is available at

I trust the Deputy will find that useful.
