Written answers

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

The current position is that applications by local authorities for funding from the Special Resolution Fund (SRF) are being assessed. A number of queries have been raised by the Department with local authorities in relation to certain of the applications. I am conscious of the limited time available to complete SRF projects within the current year and I am hopeful that my Department will be in a position to finalise matters in the coming weeks.
