Question:

554. Deputy Brian Stanley asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will review the cut to funding that has been imposed on a project (details supplied) in Dublin 10; and the reason he now believes that it is no longer a core responsibility of his Department to fund this project. [27163/13]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government

The project concerned no longer operates as a mainstreamed drugs project under my Department’s housing programme. However, I understand that Dublin City Council has provided funding of €30,000 to support the Project in question during 2013.
