This Department is currently in the process of compiling the applications for funding for 2007, both under the Fishery Harbour Development Programme and the Coast Protection Programme. The question of providing funding for any proposed works, including those in County Mayo, will be considered in the context of the amount of Exchequer funding available for these works generally and overall national priorities. Under the Department's Fishery Harbour Development Programme and Coastal Protection Programme for 2006 funding was allocated to Mayo County Council for the projects listed below in Appendices 1 and 2.
