Question 297: To ask the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs if he will confirm when the dial to stop drug dealing campaign will be rolled out in Limerick in view of the fact that he stated in response to Parliamentary Question No. 284 of 2 December 2008 that it would be rolled out between January and February 2009 yet to date there is no evidence of this having happened.

As I previously advised the Deputy, an indicative allocation in the amount of €300,000 has been approved under the Dormant Accounts Fund for the final two phases of the Dial to Stop Drug Dealing campaign in 2009.

The campaign will be run in a number of Local and Regional Drugs Task Force areas, including the Midwest RDTF, which covers Limerick. I hope to have Government approval shortly on the specific proposals involved. Subject to such approval, I would expect the campaigns to roll out over the coming months.
