- Other Questions: Departmental Schemes (21 Feb 2018)
Éamon Ó Cuív: I wish to ask the Minister a question. Is he listening? Why are we getting this big word "review" again? Why did the Minister not simply say that nothing has been sorted yet and that no projects have been approved? Is that the situation after the long rigmarole of an answer he just gave? Is this exactly what the Minister told me at the end: nothing has been sorted or approved? Can the...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Time is running out so I will ask a short question this time. There are two parts to it. Will the Minister explain to me what the term "shortly" means in this instance?

Éamon Ó Cuív: Can the Minister be a little more specific on the schemes he will roll out this year under the rural development plan? Are there no new schemes under the CLÁR programme?

[8715/18]
- Other Questions: Departmental Schemes (21 Feb 2018)

It concerns the requests for submissions sought from bodies in 2018 under the local improvement, village and town renewal, national rural development and CLÁR schemes. I also seek the number of projects approved under these schemes. Two months are gone in the year, ten months are left,...
- Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: CLÁR Programme (21 Feb 2018)
Éamon Ó Cuív: An allocation of €5 million works out at about €250,000 per county. Is the Minister telling me that in his county of Mayo, where virtually all of the county is in a CLÁR area except around Castlebar, Westport and Ballina, €250,000 is going to make any difference on the ground? Can he tell me whether he will have access to the €312 million fund that is...
- Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: RAPID Programme (21 Feb 2018)
Éamon Ó Cuív: We must be living in the most reviewed country in the world because every time I ask a question here, I am told a review is being done.
