The information sought by the Deputy can be found in:—

∙the Revised Estimates Volume (REV) for the Department for the years 2004, 2005 and 2006

∙the Appropriation Account for 2004 and 2005

Both the REV and Appropriation Account can be located in the Dáil Library and at www.finance.gov.ie and at www.audgen.gov.ie respectively.

Expenditure to end June 2006 is set out in the appendix.

The Deputy will also be aware that expenditure within these programme areas takes place across a wide range of schemes and projects countrywide, descriptions of which are available on my Department's website at www.pobail.ie. Additional details may also be found on the Pobal (formerly ADM) website at www.pobal.ie

It is the practice of both my colleague, Minister of State Noel Ahern. T.D., and myself to make details of all announcements relating to grant approvals and other expenditure-related decisions available on the Department's website.

If the Deputy would like information in relation to a particular scheme, I would be glad to provide details to her.
