I propose to take Questions Nos. 369 to 373, inclusive, together.

The table gives details at programme level of the estimated capital expenditure by my Department in 2019, on the basis of the financial provision made for my Department in Part III, Estimates for Public Services, of Budget 2019: Expenditure Report, published by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. The table does not include additional capital funding that will be available for housing purposes from local property tax receipts in the amount of some €77 million in 2019. Information in relation to particular projects being financed from these allocations will become available as appropriate at a later stage as part of ongoing programme management and delivery.
