Vol. 377 No. 6

Written Answers - Drogheda Community Services Centre.

43.

asked the Minister for Health the reason no allocation of funds from the national lottery was made to the Drogheda Community Services Centre, County Louth; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the national lottery has had a serious effect on their fund raising programme; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that this will affect the essential services provided by the centre; if he will reconsider his decision; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I was not in a position to assist the centre from the lottery proceeds available to me early last year. However, the centre is being considered as a possible beneficiary from additional lottery proceeds which became available in November 1987. I expect to be in a position to reach a decision on the allocation of these proceeds in the near future.
