Tom Hayes

Ceist:

184 Deputy Tom Hayes asked the Minister for Transport the amount of money that was granted to each local authority to repair the damage to roads which occurred late last winter; the amount of the money that remains to be drawn down by each local authority in tabular form [36837/10]

The improvement and maintenance of regional and local roads is the statutory responsibility of each local authority, in accordance with the provisions of Section 13 of the Roads Act 1993. Works on those roads are funded from local authorities own resources and are supplemented by State road grants paid by my Department. Local authorities provided details of exceptional road related costs, which fell outside the normal financial provision for winter maintenance as a direct result of the damage sustained in late 2009/early 2010. I took account of this information received when deciding on the allocations to local authorities of €411million for 2010.

I decided to defer the planned rehabilitation works on regional and local roads in 2010, in order to provide greater flexibility to local authorities to address the damage sustained and I requested that they carefully target resources to address, on a priority basis, the most urgently required repairs. It is not, therefore, possible to isolate specific amounts of money from the funds allocated to each Authority in the manner sought by the Deputy, but I understand that all of the funding allocated to local authorities for regional and local roads in 2010 (€411 million) will be drawn down by year-end.

However, the following table shows for information the amount allocated to each local authority, the amount paid to date and the balance remaining to be paid as at end September 2010.
