Willie Penrose (Minister of State with special responsibility for Housing and Planning, Department of Environment, Community and Local Government; Longford-Westmeath, Labour)

This application is currently being considered by my Department in the context of the available resources and the competing demands for communal facility grants across a number of local authorities. The relevant local authorities were recently requested to provide details of the current status of proposals and following receipt of this information decisions will be made on the additional projects to be funded in 2011.
