Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 602 and 603 together.
My Department funds a number of statutory bodies, details of which are set out in the Revised Estimates Volume for the relevant years, which are available at www.per.gov.ie. These bodies receive funding by way of an approved allocation, to enable them to carry out their statutory functions. A proportion of the funding provided funds salaries, wages and pensions if applicable.
My Department also administers a National Lottery Discretionary Fund from which once-off grants are paid to community and voluntary organisations, providing a range of health related services. A list of the organisations that received lottery funding in 2009, 2010 and 2011 is available on my Departments website at www.doh.ie.
