Éamon Ó Cuív (Galway West, Fianna Fail)

I have been informed by Údarás na Gaeltachta that due regard was given to proper rules and procedures in the case in question. Furthermore, Údarás has also informed me that the expenditure in question accords with the basic principle of ensuring value for money in the promotion of its strategic objectives. Again I reiterate that, as Minister, I have no statutory function in regard to the day-to-day administration of Údarás na Gaeltachta.
