Capital Expenditure Programme
Dail Éireann — 2022-06-16
============================================================

Dara Calleary (FF), Mayo

Of the €12 billion projected spend, we had only completed €2.2 billion by the end of May. Is the Minister confident we will reach that €12 billion target? I understand and get the pattern of capital expenditure. Of all the Departments, only two are over profile. Is there any Department in particular the Minister or his officials are concerned about that is substantially behind profile? What steps are taken to intervene or work with a Department that, for whatever reason, is behind profile? Given we are halfway through the year, will there be a particularly focused review at this time to identify any particular outliers?
