Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 12 July 2018
699. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the funding provided towards capital projects in counties Meath and Louth in 2016, 2017 and to date in 2018, by project name, location and cost in tabular form. [31989/18]
View answerMy Department has not provided funding towards capital projects in counties Meath and Louth during the period 2016 to 2018. As a Department our aim is to provide active participation and inclusion in society through the provision of income support, employment services and other services. Department funding is not delivered on a county basis.
The Department can however provide the Deputy with details of the support provided in Meath and Louth through Community Employment, Tús, Job Clubs, Local Employment Services etc in 2016,2017 and for the year to date should that be of assistance.
I trust that this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
