My Department's strategy statement for 2005 to 2007 gives details of those State agencies and other bodies reporting to, or under the aegis of, my Department, for which I am appropriately accountable to the Oireachtas. There are many other bodies or groups which receive funding directly from my Department or, for example, through Pobal. While I am not responsible for these groups and am not required to account for them in Dáil replies, I am, of course, accountable to the Dáil in the normal way for all moneys expended from the Vote of my Department.
