I also wish to inform the Deputy that I do not have statutory responsibility for maintaining lists of the names of the Chairpersons, Secretaries and Treasurers of community and voluntary organisations in Galway (or other counties) that may from time to time receive grants from my Department. While my Department may correspond with such organisations from time to time and, at certain points in time, know the names of some of the Chairpersons, Secretaries and Treasurers, it does not maintain a register of such names. These are matters for the independent organisations concerned.
