Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 July 2022
920. Deputy Matt Carthy asked the Minister for Rural and Community Development the allocation provided in Budget 2022 to each division and unit within her Department in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [35841/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe budget allocated to my Department for 2022 is published in the Revised Estimates Volume 2022, which is available here: assets.gov.ie/207416/1ebb916d-9839-458f-a4df-9fa77be9b7de.pdf
The Revised Estimate 2022 provides a gross allocation of €378.6 million, of which; €202.3 million is allocated to the Rural Development, Regional Affairs and the Islands programme area; €171.7 million is allocated to the Community Development programme area, and; €4.6 million is allocated to fund the Charities Regulatory Authority.
The table below provides a full breakdown of that funding across each area, including the share of capital and current funding. It should also be noted that a deferred surrender of €16.9 million in capital funding was carried forward from 2021 for use in 2022, meaning total funding of €395.5 million is available for use in 2022.
The 2022 gross allocation for my Department, of €378.6 million, represents an 8% increase on the 2021 allocation of €351 million, and builds further on strong funding growth in previous years. This increased funding for 2022 has allowed additional investment across our schemes, which are supporting communities right across the country. The funding has also allowed strong progress in the implementation of relevant actions in Our Rural Future, and the establishment of the new Community Centre Fund.
