I propose to take Questions Nos. 147 and 148 together.

The new Capital Envelope announced in the context of Budget 2018 is being used by the HSE to revise the Capital Plan and also in preparing the National Service Plan for 2018. Therefore I am not in a position to say what projects will be funded next year.
