Written answers

Draft legislation to give effect to the changes announced by the Government last December in relation to the distribution of funds from dormant accounts is currently being prepared in my Department. It will provide for a process through which decisions on disbursements of dormant accounts moneys will be made by Government following a public application and assessment procedure using publicised assessment criteria. The draft legislation is at an advanced stage of preparation and I would hope, subject to Government approval, for publication of the Bill later this month.
