There are a number of ongoing (non PPP) higher education investment projects which support the TUs and IOTs. Currently there are 27 capital projects approved or under way in the TU/IOT sector. These projects are approved for €106m in Exchequer funding.
My Department is also reviewing the parameters of the next phase of Exchequer capital investment in the higher education sector in the context of NDP ceilings published last month. It is intended that new funding programmes will be announced in the near future for the higher education sector.
