My Department does not have any record of providing direct funding to Associated Charities Trust.

However, as an association dealing with housing issues, the organisation has received funding of a total of approximately €1.17 million from Limerick City Council since 1990 under my Department’s Capital Assistance Scheme, towards the provision of 22 housing units. Under this Scheme, funding is provided by my Department to local authorities who, in turn, provide funding to Approved Housing Bodies for the provision of accommodation for persons with specific categories of housing need.
