732. To ask the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources the amount of pre-financing by programme his Department has applied for with regard to the current phase of EU funding programmes; the amount that is likely to be reimbursed to the EU Commission; the reasons this money will be reimbursed; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

My Department operates a number of programmes which are part financed from the European Regional Development Fund.  Estimates for these receipts were published in Appendix 3 of the Revised Estimates for Public Services 2016, a copy of which follows.

My Department does not receive pre-financing in relation to EU funding programmes, therefore the question of reimbursement does not arise.
