Question:486 Deputy Brian Stanley asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government about the long delay in enabling community and voluntary groups and enterprises to draw down their awarded grants which is causing hardship to those groups and individuals; if he has made a decision or when he is going to make a decision as to the mechanism to be used to administer the Rural Development Programme 2007-2013 and the Local and Community Development Programme in the areas previously covered by Meitheal Forbartha na Gaeltachta; if these groups and individuals will be reimbursed for interest charges incurred as a result of the delay; if he will provide a breakdown of the funding allocated to each of the affected areas under the Rural Development Programme, including grants paid to date, grants allocated but awaiting drawdown, and the balance of funding to be allocated; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
