I propose to take Questions Nos. 1153 and 1155 to 1157, inclusive, together.

For the period 2001 to 2005 payments to this group were sanctioned by the then Department of Health and Children and issued by the then North Eastern Health Board from a Central Development Fund. Since 2005, the HSE has had full responsibility for these matters. The following table sets out the level of funding provided to the group in question for the period 2001 to 2005.

YearAmount
2001*€170,814
2002€171,925
2003€202,909
2004€297,354
2005€275,504

* includes a National Lottery Grant of €38,192

Audited reports for the years 2001 to 2004 were provided to the Department by the group. My Department has sought the information requested by the Deputy, in respect of any funding provided to and the accounting arrangement with the group with effect from 2005/2006 to date, from the HSE and I will provide the information to the Deputy when it becomes available.
