I propose to take Questions Nos. 344, 345 and 403 together.

My Department administers a National Lottery Discretionary Fund from which once-off grants are paid to community and voluntary organisations providing a range of health related services. Senior Citizen, Community and Sports organisations have successfully applied for Lottery grants in the past, depending on the project complying with the relevant criteria. Detailed procedures, along with the application form for 2015, are set out on my Department's website at www.health.gov.ie.

Details of all organisations who received National Lottery funds from 2009 to 2014 is available on my Department's website.
