Vol. 557 No. 4
193 Mr. O'Dowd asked the Minister for Finance the moneys available in his Department for the RAPID programmes; the requests he has received for funding of the RAPID programme; the funding which has been granted to the RAPID programme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22666/02]
As the Deputy is aware, the programme for Revitalising Areas by Planning, Investment and Development relates to the co-ordination of relevant activities in disadvantaged areas. No plans submitted under this programme relate to activities carried on by my Department. As such, no funding for these programmes is provided through my Department's Vote.
