In the context of the broad programme of measures in support of volunteering which I announced last year, cohesion funding was made available during 2005 to promote volunteering at a local level. In common with other local authority areas, Dublin City Development Board co-ordinated and facilitated the process at local level. Dublin City Development Board received a total of 71 applications for funding under the volunteering measure, including an application from the organisation in question. However, this application was not among the proposals which were prioritised by Dublin City Development Board and ultimately submitted to my Department.
