The following table outlines the details of monies spent directly by my Department on projects in County Meath during the period in question. In relation to details of expenditure by bodies under the aegis of my Department, this is, in the first instance, a matter for the bodies concerned. I will ask that they supply the information to the Deputy.
In addition, I should mention that, as part of the Community Outreach Programme being operated by The Wheel and which is aimed at providing information on digital switch-over to more vulnerable households, a small amount of funding would be provided to the relevant County Champion to cover their expenses in running this programme in the Meath area.
