Question 438: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government when approval will be given to a grant (details suppled); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7959/12]

Phil Hogan (Minister, Department of Environment, Community and Local Government; Carlow-Kilkenny, Fine Gael)

I refer to the reply to question 146 of 25 January 2012, which sets out the position in this matter. I am not in a position to consider any additional funding for the type of project referred to until such time as the DG Competition decision is received.
