The total level of funding made available to local authorities under the anti-litter and anti-graffiti awareness grant scheme over the last 5 years is as follows: 2009: €1.07 million; 2008: €1.245 million; 2007: €950,000; 2006: €673,000; and 2005: €510,000. The details of allocations and payments to local authorities are shown in the following table. The variance between allocation and payment can arise when a local authority does not request its full allocation; the surplus can then be awarded to other local authorities seeking additional funding.
