Eamon Ryan (Dublin Bay South, Green Party) | Oireachtas source

I do not have the details, but I recall that in recent days the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, Deputy Catherine Martin, has issued further funding to the mná tí who have lost out because of the loss of Irish colleges again this summer. Difficult choices must be made regarding the allocation of resources, but I will check. My understanding is that further funding has been provided, but I will pass on the concerns raised by the Deputy, see if any community or other organisation has been left out and, if so, if that can be addressed. Support for such initiatives, however, is a top priority for the Minister.
