Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 13 November 2013
114. Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will provide a county breakdown of the local government fund allocations in 2010, 2011, 2012 and to date in 2013; the estimated distribution for 2014; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [48488/13]
View answerI assume that the Question refers to general purpose grants from the Local Government Fund. General purpose grants are my Department’s contribution towards meeting the cost to local authorities of providing a reasonable level of services to their customers.
The information requested is set out in the table which details the total general purpose grant allocations from the Local Government Fund for all local authorities in each county. The allocations for 2010 and 2011 take account of income from pension related deductions which was collected and retained by local authorities. General purpose grants for 2014 will be announced in due course.
