Under the programme for Government and the capital investment plan more than €10 million was promised for two major works in Middleton Community Hospital and Youghal Community Hospital. These works were to be completed by 2021. Moneys were also promised for flood relief in east Cork, as well as remedial works on the weir in Fermoy. All these projects may be affected by the €100 million saving that must be found. The Taoiseach will correct me if I am wrong. Were we not promised during the week that we would receive a report on which projects will be affected? Is that report ready? If it is, can we get a copy of it?

I will be very brief because I know Deputies want to get in and get away. On the same issue, we have been told there will be a cut of €3 million in that budget. While significant amounts of money are being spent, we really need to know where those cuts are going to come. As the Taoiseach knows, in my part of the country and right along the River Shannon we have suffered significant flooding, including in areas that were never flooded before. It is crucial for us to know where those cuts are to come and whether they will affect flood relief.

I explained this in the Dáil yesterday and the Minister for Finance outlined exactly which projects are to be deferred. None of the projects raised by the Deputies is to be deferred. Those savings will happen through reprofiling within very large existing budgets.
