Amounts received as appropriations-in-aid in respect of EU programmes directly under my Department's remit for the period since its establishment in June 2003 to end-2006 are set out in the Appropriation Accounts for the years in question. For the Deputy's convenience, the relevant amounts are included in Table 1, as well as amounts received in 2007 to date.

The outturns for certain subheads in my Department's Vote relating to Údarás na Gaeltachta also contain expenditure relating to activities co-financed from EU funding. Details of such funding receipts, which have been communicated to my Department by an tÚdarás, are set out in Table 2.
