Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 6 February 2014
136. Deputy Terence Flanagan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will provide a list of all NGOs in receipt of funding/grants from his Department in each of the past five years; and the NGOs, if any, in receipt of funding/grants from his Department over the past five years that are bound by a service level agreement. [6048/14]
View answerI wish to advise the Deputy that the tables linked below list the Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) that were in receipt of funding from my Department at any time over the past five years (2009 - 2013); and those NGOs in receipt of funding that are bound by a service level agreement.
Not all organisations that received funding are bound by a service level agreement. By way of example the Deputy should note that the funding provided to a majority of organisations funded by Cosc is in the form of awareness grants, rather than funding for services. These grants are, on average, less than €5,000, rather than the more considerable sums provided to organisations towards the provision of services, which are subject to service level agreements.
However, each of the awareness-raising grantees agrees to certain terms and conditions before funding is released, including that they provide audited accounts for the previous year, agree to reimburse granted funding if it is not spent, keep receipts associated with the project for five years, engage with any audit to be conducted by Cosc and provide a written evaluation of the results of the funding to Cosc at the end of the project.
Our systems and practices in this area were audited by the Internal Audit Unit of my Department in 2011 and were updated to reflect the recommendations of the auditor.
