Vol. 561 No. 4
352 Mr. Naughten asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will approve funding under the lottery grant scheme for St. Vincent de Paul Oak Grove Housing Development, County Roscommon; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4361/03]
No application for national lottery funding has been received in my Department from the St. Vincent de Paul Oak Grove Housing Development, County Roscommon.
There is a set protocol in my Department for processing applications for national lottery grants. A standard application form is made available to an organisation seeking a national lottery grant. When the completed application form is received in my Department it is registered in the finance unit and forwarded to the relevant services division for assessment, evaluation and recommendation. All applications are then considered in the context of the recommendations and the overall level of funds available.
