Written Answers. - Survey Completion Funds.
The National Parks and Wildlife Service of my Department, in response to a request from the Royal Irish Academy for funding assistance for the new survey of Clare Island, County Mayo, allocated a sum of £5,000 per annum over four years commencing in 1994. The Royal Irish Academy has indicated that this level of funding would almost certainly ensure the completion of the survey.
