As the Deputy will be aware, 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. Funding in 2015 amounts to €3.286m.
My Department has received a large number of applications under the National Lottery Discretionary Fund which are currently being processed. However, we have not received an application from the organisation in question. As the HSE also administers grants under the National Lottery, the organisation in question may have applied to the HSE. Therefore, it has been requested that the HSE reply directly to you.
If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office who will follow up.
