Written answers

I assume the Deputy is referring to Exchequer funding. The Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) receives Exchequer funding and Levy funding.

The Exchequer grant for the CCPC in 2020 was €13,836,000. If this allocation was increased by 12% for 2021, as indicated by the Deputy, the allocation which the CCPC would receive in 2021 would increase by €1,660,320 amounting to a total of €15,496,320 in Exchequer funding.
