Written answers

I propose to take Questions Nos. 229 to 231, inclusive, together.

My Department has been reconfigured on several occasions over the time period referenced by the Deputy. In view of this, the information sought by the Deputy is not readily available and its compilation would involve a disproportionate amount of time. The information below covers the period since the current government formed.

My Department has provided funding to NGOs and Charities for a number of projects including National Spring Clean (NSC) and the Irish Business Against Litter (IBAL) programmes. Details of these and other funding provided to NGOs are set out in the table below:
