Over the past two years I have awarded National Lottery Funding to several organisations who wished to establish "Men's Sheds." Should an organisation wish to make an application for National Lottery Funding they should submit a formal application to my Department. Detailed procedures, along with the necessary application form are set out on my Department's website: www.doh.ie

I have asked the HSE to reply directly to the Deputy in the matter of HSE funding for "Men's Sheds."
