Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 December 2014
297. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Health the details of National Lottery funding applications for community and voluntary groups for County Louth for each year since 2012; the number of applications received for each year by location; the number granted and refused; the marking scheme used; if unsuccessful applications have been advised of the reason for not succeeding; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [46757/14]
View answerThe information requested by the Deputy for the years 2012 and 2013 is provided in the tables. My Department is currently finalising the processing of decisions on applications for 2014 and the information will be provided to the Deputy as soon as it is complete.
National Lottery applications are received by my Department from a range of community and voluntary organisations involved in various health related activities. The relevant Unit in my Department liaises with the appropriate personnel in the Health Service Executive to assess each individual application and consider whether the application should be recommended for funding. When the assessment has been completed and a recommendation has been made, I review each application and prioritise them according to their merits before awarding National Lottery funding. All organisations who apply to my Department for National Lottery funding are notified of my decision.
