The Further Revised Estimates for 2019 in respect of the Department of Rural and Community Development provided for gross capital expenditure of €138 million. These resources were fully utilised, with capital expenditure for the year of €137.9 million. As a full capital spend was also achieved in 2018, capital carryover did not arise in 2019.
The 2019 capital allocations and estimated provisional outturn by subhead are presented in the table. The provisional capital outturn will be confirmed in the Department's annual Appropriation Account which will be submitted to the Comptroller and Auditor General for audit in March 2020, with final account published in September 2020.
I am satisfied the mix of policy initiatives, actions and investment put in place in recent years is strengthening both rural and urban communities. Strategic investments are supporting Project Ireland 2040, and are now delivering tangible economic benefits right across the country, while also addressing gaps in meeting the social needs of communities.
