Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 December 2004
69 Mr. Boyle asked the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs if his attention has been drawn to the criticism of the RAPID programme which makes the accusation of badging the roll-out of funding in this area; and the way in which he intends to counteract this criticism. [33279/04]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am aware that there is a problem with the poor level of badging of expenditure as RAPID expenditure by Departments. I have previously raised this with departmental representatives at the RAPID national monitoring committee meetings and with my ministerial colleagues at bilateral meetings. Appropriate badging of RAPID expenditure is essential and I will continue to raise the matter with Departments.
