Written Answers. - National Lottery Funding.

James McDaid

Ceist:

37 Dr. McDaid asked the Minister for Finance if he will give a breakdown of national lottery funding under each subheading for each of the years 1994 and 1995. [23636/96]

Minister for Finance (Mr. Quinn)

It is presumed that the Deputy is referring to the funding from the national lottery beneficiary fund. This information is given in the following tables. They comprise the appendix on national lottery funded allocations in the Revised Estimates volumes for 1995 and 1996 which show the outturns for 1994 and 1995 respectively.

The precise amounts spent are shown in the Appropriation Accounts for the years in question, copies of which are available in the Oireachtas Library. These may vary slightly from the figures mentioned below.
