View answerMy Department provides funding towards initiatives in the Dublin North East Inner City (NEIC) area.
This is being used towards addressing specific community structural issues, including community engagement, social employment and community development, and to support local community and youth projects through complementing existing programmes such as SICAP.
The funding supports the social and economic regeneration of an area which is at the heart of our capital city and underlines the Government’s commitment to ensuring that the recommendations of the Mulvey Report are implemented.
The following table lays out the requested detail for the NEIC.
