I propose to take Questions Nos. 176 and 177 together.
Funding allocated to interim Drugs Task Force projects is channelled through designated agencies including the City of Dublin Vocational Education Committee (CDVEC) and the City of Dublin Youth Services Board (CDYSB). All designated agencies were asked to confirm the actual amount of funding disbursed to Drugs Task Force projects during 2011. In line with Government accounting rules, savings arising at the end of 2011 must be taken into account in calculating the overall payments to projects in the current year. However, this process has not resulted in any delays in the transfer of funding to designated agencies. The accountability arrangements in relation to Drugs Task Force projects funded through the CDYSB have been finalised and payment of the first quarter of the 2012 allocation has issued to interim funded projects in the relevant Local Drugs Task Force areas. It is expected that the funding will be in the bank account of the project referred to by the Deputy on Wednesday, 14 March.
Details of the funding provided to projects channelled through CDYSB and CDVEC from 2007 to date are listed in the table below. There was no funding provided to either agency in 2006 for interim funded projects.
