The capital expenditure provision for my Department in 2021 as set out in the Revised Estimates for Public Services 2021 published by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (DPER) and available at www.per.gov.ie/en/rev/is €2,762m.

The breakdown of this capital allocation by Programme is set out below:

In addition, deferred surrender amounting to €214m has been carried forward from 2020 for expenditure in 2021 bringing the Exchequer funding total this year to just under €3 billion which is supplemented also by LPT.

These funding allocations will be used to advance capital investment across a range of programme areas within my Department’s remit, including local authority housing, voluntary housing, estate regeneration, urban regeneration and development, water and wastewater services, peatlands restoration and conservation, national parks and wildlife services and fire and emergency services.
