The government has signed off on a 112-billion-euro capital investment package out to the end of the decade.

A further 100 billion is being planned for the years 2030 to 2035.

The National Development Plan review injects further cash from the Apple Tax and AIB share sales.

24 billion of that money will be put into transport, including public transport.

While 36 billion euro is being provided to 2030 for housing - not including investment in water.

Tánaiste Simon Harris says the money will contribute to huge infrastructure improvements.

To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Garry Miley, Ogonnelloe-based Architect and Colmán Ó Raghallaigh, West On Track.
