Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs (Éamon Ó Cuív)

I would refer the Deputy to my reply to question number 41 on 14 June 2006 which sets out my comprehensive views on the evaluation commissioned by Pobal on behalf of my Department and published earlier this year. The evaluation is available on www.pobal.ie/live/RAPID/225.html.
