127 Mr. Naughten asked the Minister for Health and Children if additional funding will be provided to the Western Alzheimer Foundation for a respite home in Ballindine, County Mayo; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10456/99]
Ongoing additional revenue funding of £20,000 a year was provided this year to the Western Alzheimer Foundation. An application on behalf of the Western Alzheimer Foundation for a grant from the 1999 national lottery fund was received in my Department at the beginning of March and will be considered in due course, along with the many other applications received.
