    Does anybody able to reconcile two figures for me?

    The old NDP is widely being reported as costing €75bn whereas the new one only costs €39bn.

    The NDP document though said it was €184bn?

    It is government spin they are reducing the spend and then pretending that this is job creation. This is obviously crap as it will mean less money so you would imagine less work to do!

    The Plan is the largest and most ambitious investment programme ever proposed for Ireland. It builds on, and consolidates, the achievements of the previous Plan, and provides €54.6 billion for investment in economic infrastructure; €49.6 billion for social inclusion measures (children, people with disabilities, etc.); €33.6 billion for social infrastructure (housing, health, justice, etc.); €25.8 billion for human capital (schools, training, higher education, etc.), and €20 billion for enterprise, science and innovation.

    I would drop the social inclusion part straight away. Time to bring back some community spirit! why should I pay to look after your kids or vice versa!
