Since the Department of Transport, Energy and Communications was formed, a national lottery funded grant-in-aid was paid to An Post for restoration work at the GPO in Dublin, in 1993 in an amount of £729,000.
This represented a continuation of the restoration work which was funded by the national lottery through various Departments since 1990 as follows: 1992, Department of Tourism, Transport and Communications, £893,000; 1991, Department of Tourism, Transport and Communications, £999,391; 1990, Department of Communications, £500,000.
There is no commitment to future disbursement of such funds by my Department.
