Mr. Ray O'Leary:
As I outlined earlier, the local improvement scheme is now funded by the Department of Rural and Community Development. The Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport no longer awards funding to this scheme but, as noted by Mr. Mullaney, local authorities have the option of allocating a slice of the annual funding allocations provided to them by the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport to local improvement schemes.
