Donegal County Council submitted design details, costings, and grant application forms for the Dunmore Upper Group Scheme to my Department on 28 March 1978, together with a proposal for the granting of a special subvention of £5,000 to the group over and above the normal grants. However, the council revised the amount of special subvention proposed to £7,400 by letter dated 19 April 1978. My Department have asked the council to supply additional information in relation to the subvention proposal. When this information is received, a decision in the matter will be made.
