152 Mr. Crowe asked the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs the position regarding the progress of the RAPID scheme for the constituency of Dublin South-West. [19587/02]
As the Deputy is aware, the RAPID Programme is a focused initiative by the Government to target the most concentrated areas of disadvantage in the country. The programme also calls on Departments and State agencies to bring about better co-ordination and closer integration in the delivery of services. Strand I of the programme targets 25 urban areas while strand II is targeting 20 provincial towns.
