Details of projects which have benefited from national lottery funding in the areas of arts and culture, heritage and the Irish language during the years 1987 to 1993 are contained in the Appropriation Accounts for those years. Prior to 1993 moneys for projects in the arts, culture and heritage areas were disbursed through the Vote of the Department of the Taoiseach.
Details in respect of projects-organisations to which funding was provided in 1994 follow as Appendix 1.
The total amount of national lottery moneys for the areas of arts and culture, heritage and the Irish language under the aegis of my Department in the current year is £14.396 million, as provided in the 1995 Revised Estimates for the Public Service — Vote 42: subheads C1, D2, J and K; Vote 43: subhead B; Vote 44: subhead B. These amounts include grants-in-aid to certain bodies under the aegis of my Department. In the case of An Chomhairle Ealaíon, which is funded from both the Exchequer and the national lottery, detailed lists of grants given by An Chomhairle are published in its annual reports, copies of which are laid before the Oireachtas. Maidir le Bord na Gaeilge, tá eolas faoi na bealaí ina chaitear an t-airgead a chuirtear ar fáil don eagraíocht — arbh ón gcrannchur náisiúnta an t-iomlán — ar fáil ina cuid tuarascálacha bliantúla, a leagtar faoi bhráid an Oireachtais.
Projects for which national lottery funding has been approved by my Department but for which there have been no payments to date are listed in Appendix 2.
