My Department is currently concluding contract details with the South Dublin VEC to enable funding of the order of €450,000-€500,000 to be provided in 2009 under the Community Services Programme to ensure that services provided at four dual-use school and community facilities are maintained. While separate figures have not been established for the Collinstown facility, my understanding is that the services will be of equal quality across the four centres.

Question 129: To ask the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs the amount of funding awarded by way of grant or other form of aid to various groups throughout County Kildare in the past two years; the degree to which it is expected to improve or increase such aid in 2009; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The amount of funding awarded by way of grant or other form of aid to various groups throughout County Kildare in the past two years is outlined in the following table. It is obviously necessary to take account of the current economic reality and of the pressure on the public finances in the operation of these schemes and inevitably there will have to be changes affecting the funding of schemes. Against that background, priority will be given to frontline services.
