The details of National Lottery funding disbursed by my Department for the years 2007 to 2009 are provided in tabular form.
In the years 2007 and 2008 the vast majority of National Lottery funding disbursed by my Department arose from the payment of grants to support Youth Services. With effect from 1 January 2009 functions in relation to Youth Affairs Section, including funding, were transferred from my Department to the Department of Health and Children. Other National Lottery funding disbursed by my Department supports Local Drugs Task Forces, Cultural Activities, the Irish Language and Adult Education.
The Revised Estimates Volume published by the Department of Finance provides summary details of programmes part-financed by the National Lottery and disbursed by relevant Government Departments and Offices. The Revised Estimates Volume provides these details at Vote subhead level and broken down by capital and current allocation. The Volume identifies the aggregate amount of National Lottery funding towards the programmes in question, together with the amount of Exchequer funding. For example, the Revised Estimates Volume for 2010 (Page 243) identifies that total funding of €435.387 million was provided in 2009 to programmes which are part-financed by the National Lottery. Some €275 million was financed from the National Lottery, while the remaining €160.387 million was financed by the Exchequer.
