Vol. 357 No. 2

Written Answers. - Capital Grant Increase.

525.

asked the Minister for Health whether it is his intention to further fund the Brothers of Charity Services, Kilcornan Training Centre, Clarinbridge, County Galway, in respect of certain services (details supplied) which have not been funded to date.

In recent months I made additional contributions to the Brothers of Charity towards the capital cost of providing services including community services in the west of Ireland. I have also increased their 1985 allocation to assist them in meeting the cost of their services including their commitments in the west. Very recently I met with the Brothers of Charity and we had a detailed discussion about their requirements in the western area. The Order expressed themselves as satisfied with the proposals which I made to them in relation to funding the services outlined by the Deputy on a phased basis as resources permit.
