Ceist:307 Mr. Deasy asked the Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation the subvention provided for Bord Fáilte in 1998; and the headings under which the money was allocated. [25657/98]
Written Answers - Bord Fáilte Funding.
The information requested by the Deputy is contained in the Department of Finance publication "Revised Estimates for Public Services, 1998" which was presented to both Houses of the Oireachtas on 25 March 1998.
I have set out the information in relation to Bord Fáilte in the following tabular statement:
|
Sub-head |
Tourism service |
1998 Provision £ million |
|
B1 |
Grants under Section 2 of the Tourist Traffic Act, 1961 (Grant-in-aid) |
26.851 |
|
B2 |
Tourism Development Works (Grant-in-aid) |
1.098 |
|
B4 |
Special Tourism Marketing Initiatives |
3.5 |
It is, however, my intention to submit a Supplementary Estimate later this week which is likely to affect this breakdown.
