Funding of €136,683 was paid to the organisation mentioned in the details supplied by the Deputy under An Scéim Phobail Gaeilge 2008-2010 which is administered by Foras na Gaeilge. The funding was in respect of salary costs for a development officer, other administration costs and a programme of activities. No capital funding was approved. I understand from Foras na Gaeilge that the organisation has not been approved for funding under An Scéim Phobail Gaeilge 2011-2013 as it did not fulfil the pre-selection conditions of the scheme.
