Written answers

I propose to take Questions Nos. 575 and 576 together.

As the Deputy will be aware, my Department was established on 2 June 2011. It oversees and has policy responsibility for the conservation, preservation, protection, development and presentation of Ireland’s heritage and culture. My Department also seeks to promote the Irish language, to support the Gaeltacht and to assist the sustainable development of island communities. Information in relation to the wide-ranging functions of my Department, as well as the programmes and schemes operated by it, can be found on my Department's website at www.ahg.gov.ie. Details of State bodies and agencies with responsibilities relating to various aspects of my Department’s remit can also be accessed through that website.

With regard to the specific information sought by the Deputy, I am assuming that the scope of his Questions is not intended to encompass non-statutory bodies and other organisations which receive grants from my Department for specific projects. Accordingly, the table contains details of non-statutory bodies and organisations that received operational funding from my Department's Vote in respect of 2012. It should be noted that some of these bodies may receive funding from other sources.
