My Department received a submission in 2008 from the relevant local authority in regard to the facility referred to by the Deputy. However, while my Department was positively disposed towards the proposed development, it was not in a position to commit financial assistance towards it due to substantial existing commitments that fell to be honoured at the time. In the context of the continuing high level of such commitments and the limited resources available, it will not be possible to commit funding towards this development in the short- to medium-term.
