I propose to take Questions Nos. 665 and 668 together.

The approval of grant aid under the Tourism Capital Investment Programme is a matter for Fáilte Ireland. The current position regarding an individual application is an operational matter for the Agency. I have referred the Deputy's Questions to Fáilte Ireland for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
