Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 23 April 2015
170. Deputy Brian Stanley asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will provide a breakdown, in tabular form, of the amount of local government funding that has been provided to each county in the past five years; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16017/15]
View answerI assume that the Question refers to general purpose grants from the Local Government Fund. General purpose grants we re my Department’s contribution towards meeting the cost to local authorities of providing a reasonable level of services to their customers. The table below details the general purpose grant payments from the Local Government Fund to all local authorities in each county in the years 2010 - 2014. The 2014 figures recognise the removal of water related costs from local authorities to Irish Water in 2014 and are therefore not directly comparable to previous years ’ funding.
