Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 10 November 2015
601. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if unspent moneys awarded by his Department for festivals will be allocated to other festival committees, even though the festival would have taken place; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39584/15]
View answerThe award of grants for festivals is an operational matter for the Board and management of Fáilte Ireland and not a matter in which I, as Minister, have any role or function. I have referred the Deputy's Question to Fáilte Ireland for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
