Departmental Funding Dail Éireann — 2026-01-29 ============================================================ Brendan Smith (FF), Cavan-Monaghan I very much welcome the substantial provision the Minister secured in the national development plan for capital developments in the further education sector. Thankfully, there has been a welcome emphasis in recent years on the development of the further education sector. Will the Minister outline some of the projects that will be progressed and will benefit from the funding available to his Department in 2026 for capital developments? --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
