Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 March 2014
720. Deputy Brian Stanley asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the amount of money that will be paid to local authorities from the Local Government Fund in 2014, with a breakdown of allocation to each of the local authorities. [13958/14]
Amharc ar fhreagraI assume that the Question refers to general purpose grants from the Local Government Fund. General purpose grants are a contribution from my Department towards meeting the cost to local authorities of providing a reasonable level of services to their customers.
The amount to be paid to local authorities from the Local Government Fund for general purpose grants in 2014 is €281m; this figure recognises the removal of water related costs from local authorities to Irish Water in 2014. The table below details the general purpose grant allocations from the Local Government Fund to local authorities in 2014 (the allocations to County Councils are "county at large" allocations in respect of the County Council and any Town Councils within the county).
