Housing authorities have been provided with provisional allocations for my Department's Capital Assistance and Capital Loan & Subsidy Schemes for 2009. However, these provisional allocations may be subject to further possible amendment, and it is the intention to issue final allocations for 2009 in April, following completion of a series of Housing Action Plan meetings with local authorities which is due to start in early March.

An application for funding under the Capital Assistance Scheme for a project at this location was received from Cork County Council by my Department in late 2004. Since then, my Department has engaged with the Council with a view to resolving certain technical and procurement issues attaching to the application. In December 2008 further information was requested from the Council and a response is awaited.
