Question 181: To ask the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs, further to Question No. 40 of 14 December 2005, the reason that the applicant did not have an opportunity to seek such a grant from other organisations outside the Gaeltacht; his views on whether he needs to clarify these matters more; what he meant when he said the applicant did not have the opportunity to obtain a grant anywhere else outside the Gaeltacht in view of fact that the applicant's quarry operation was clearly outside the Gaeltacht at the time.

Question 182: To ask the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs the position regarding correspondence (details supplied); if, in view of the EI report and its caution to Údarás the reason they acted directly against such recommendations in their capital grant aid decision; the further reason Údarás did a U-turn on the matter less than two months later in view of its own correspondence to the applicant of 21 October 1998 not to recommend a capital grant.

Question 184: To ask the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs if, given that the real problem in a case was that a bogus address was used on the grant application (details supplied) in the first place, his views on whether this was a mistake or a misunderstanding due to townland boundary definition difficulties; and his further views on whether there was never any need for Údarás to take any steps given that the said townland boundary, mapped the same now as it has been since pre-Famine times, is fully visible and definable along its entire length in this area by a solid 6 ft high stone wall with a number of large boulders in it.
