In the period 2003-2007, the organisation referred to by the Deputy was in receipt of core funding from my Department of €30,000 per annum.
Under the Support for National Organisations in the Community and Voluntary Sector Scheme operated by my Department, I have approved an allocation of €93,000 per annum for the organisation for the period 2008-2010. This new package of funding will provide a substantial increase in support for the core activities of the organisation.
