Minister of State at the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government

I propose to take Questions Nos. 348 and 349 together.

I have no function in relation to the matter raised in the questions and the specific detailed information requested is not available in my Department. Local authorities are independent in the execution of their functions and the elected members are democratically accountable for all expenditure of the authority. Insurance claims and associated details a matters for individual local authorities.
