Vol. 384 No. 8

Written Answers. - National Lottery Funds.

221.

asked the Minister for Health if an application has been received for a grant of surplus national lottery funds by the Tallaght Senior Citizens Club, Tallaght, Dublin 24; and if he will make a statement on the matter indicating when approval will be given on this application.

An application has been received from the Tallaght Senior Citizens Club, Tallaght, Dublin 24, for assistance from the health allocation of the national lottery proceeds. Indeed, I have received a very considerable number of requests for assistance from the national lottery proceeds available for health projects. However, as the Deputy will appreciate, it has been possible to accede to only a relatively small number of these requests due to the limited funds available. This year's health allocation has now been distributed or committed in full. Consequently I am afraid I am not in a position to make funds available for the Tallaght Senior Citizens Club in the current year.
