Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence

Update on Civil Defence: Discussion

Ms Aileen Nolan:

The local authorities give a minimum of 30% but they can go higher. Let us say, for example, that the cap is €300,000. We give 70% of that and the local authority makes up the other 30% but it could give more so the overall spend would be higher than 100%.
