* The Department vote also contains a capital carryover elements of €7.7 million which is divided between A5 National Rural Development Schemes (€2.7 million) and A6 Leader (€5 million).
I will continue to review capital expenditure across the Department to year end with a view to maximising the funding made available by the Oireachtas for rural and community development in Ireland.
