Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 29 April 2015
140. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will address a matter (details supplied) regarding the local authority municipal districts; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16980/15]
View answerSection 102(4A) of the Local Government Act 2001 (as amended by the Local Government Reform Act 2014), provides the legislative basis for the draft budgetary plan for municipal districts.
The Local Government (Financial and Audit Procedures) Regulations 2014 provide a definition of General Municipal Allocation, set out a timeline for the submission of the draft budgetary plan to members of municipal districts and set out a time line for the finalisation of the draft budgetary plan.
Guidance associated with the General Municipal Allocation was circulated to Chief Executives of Local Authorities on 29 May 2014 and is available on my Department’s website at the following link: http://www.environ.ie/en/Publications/LocalGovernment/Administration/FileDownLoad,39484,en.pdf.
