I refer the Deputy to my answer to Question No. 7 of today's date.

The JPC's already established in the pilot phase are located in the following areas:

Fingal, Kerry, Offaly, South Dublin and Wicklow County Councils;

Clonmel, Drogheda and Sligo Borough Councils;

Cork, Dublin, Galway, Limerick and Waterford City Councils;

Athy, Arklow, Ballinasloe, Birr, Bray, Cavan, Carrick-on-Suir, Edenderry, Greystones, Letterkenny, Mallow, New Ross, Tralee, Tuam, Tullamore, and Wicklow Town Councils.

In the particular case of Dublin City, there are also five subcommittees, corresponding to the operational areas of the City Council.
