I propose to take Questions Nos. 249 and 250 together.
Some Euro 9 million was provided by my Department for the Rural Transport Programme (RTP) in 2007 and a further Euro 2 million has been allocated for the Programme this year. Pobal administers the RTP on behalf of my Department. There are two schemes under the Rural Transport Programme in operation in County Donegal — Seirbhis Iompair Tuaithe Teoranta (South West Donegal) and Síob Teo. (An Gaeltacht Lár and the islands of Arranmore and Tory).
