Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 10 March 2009
409 Deputy Dan Neville asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if he will make funding available for the implementation of the representations as outlined in the Rathkeale area task force, County Limerick document; and if he will fund the activities of the committee which has been set up to implement the recommendations. [10114/09]
View answerI understand that Limerick County Council's Rathkeale Local Area Plan supported the establishment of the Rathkeale Forum involving all agencies and groups with an interest in the development of the town and that the Forum will have a key role in the implementation and monitoring of the objectives and policies of the Local Area Plan.
No specific request for funding for the Forum has been received by my Department. However, any such request would have to be considered in the context of public service expenditure estimates.
