Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 December 2004
230 Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs the criteria by which funding was allocated under the recent improved co-ordination of local community schemes; and the reason no project or programme in Dublin south east met the necessary criteria. [33093/04]
View answerI refer the Deputy to my reply to Question Nos. 371 on 30 November 2004. Based on the assessment of the external consultant of the proposals received, Dublin South County Development Board was one of those county development boards to which I referred in that reply where I was unable to commit funding.
I confirm that a meeting has taken place between my Department and representatives of the county development board. The county development board has confirmed that further to that meeting, it is working on an updated submission. I hope, subject to receipt of appropriately focused proposed measures, to be in a position to support these proposals when they are received in my Department.
