*Allocations notified.
I am satisfied that Leitrim County Council have received their fair share of the funds available to me for the improvement of forest access roads and for the local improvements scheme this year. There are no funds available to me in the current year from which additional grants under either of these headings could be provided to this or any other local authority.
