Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 22 September 2011
273 Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will ensure that additional funds are allocated for 2012 local improvement scheme work (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25388/11]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Local Improvements Scheme provides funding for non-public roads and the maintenance and improvement of these roads is in the first instance a matter for the relevant landowner. The Government is undertaking a review of expenditure for the period 2012 to 2016. When my Department's provision for these years is known and the internal allocations within my Department are decided, I will then be in a position to decide what schemes will continue to receive support from the limited funds available to me.
