Vote 34 - Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government (Revised) (3 Mar 2015) Brian Stanley: I want to ask the Minister about RAS. He said it was very successful. My experience is that landlords are exiting as quickly as they can. The HAP scheme is based on the same principle, namely, that the local authority leases the house. However, the house is leased below the market rent and over a long period. How will that work in counties where landlords are ditching the schemes as quick...

Vote 34 - Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government (Revised) (3 Mar 2015) Brian Stanley: I will keep this as brief as possible. There were 32 recommendations in the report of the Commission for the Economic Development of Rural Areas, CEDRA, which falls within the remit of the Minister's Department. The Minister of State, Deputy Phelan, has a particular role in this area. There is a concern that Pat Spillane and the committee went away, put together a good report, came back...

Vote 34 - Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government (Revised) (3 Mar 2015) Brian Stanley: The Minister will have to go further north. It is inside the pale. A senior official from EUROSTAT was quoted as saying that the €130 million water conservation grant, which we all know is not a water conservation grant but that is for another day, will be counted as a direct subsidy to Irish Water.

Brian Stanley: 2. To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government the amount collected through local property tax in 2014; the amount that was placed in the local government fund under his Department; and the amount provided to local authorities, or to other public bodies and agencies. [9326/15]
- Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Property Tax (4 Mar 2015)
Brian Stanley: My question relates to the amount collected in local property tax, the amount of it which went into the local government fund, where it is supposed to be going, and the amount which was provided to local authorities. This is a key issue for people. People were promised many times in this House and elsewhere by senior Ministers and Ministers of State that the money would be used to provide...
