The processing of the approximately 1,300 applications received by my Department under the 2006 Programme of Grants for Locally-Based Community and Voluntary Organisations is nearing completion and I have already to date announced two tranches of funding under this Programme. The group referred to by the Deputy is not amongst those so far processed, however, I will be announcing further allocations of funding in the coming weeks and I expect that, following completion of the assessment process, I will be in a position to make a decision regarding this group at that time.
