Mr. John McCarthy:

Absolutely. As part of the Government's capital plan review, it has been signalled that we would like to see more funding over the coming years becoming available for LIHAF. As part of that process we will certainly encourage all local authorities to identify where this could make a difference in their areas. We did so previously for all local authorities

Deputy Cowen raised LIHAF and the spend on it. There is no spend under LIHAF yet. The process at present is that local authorities are engaging with developers on the lands concerned with a view to concluding agreements. That process should be completed by next month-----
