I assume the Deputy is referring to funding provided in 2017 however where these figures are not available, the most recent available figures are given i.e. 2016.

My Department provides funding in excess of €1 million per annum to the four state bodies which fall under its remit - Pobal, the Western Development Commission, Irish Water Safety, and the Charities Regulatory Authority.

The following table outlines the 2017 allocation to each body and states the bodies where 50% or more of its income comes from public sources:

Irish Water Safety€1.075m2017Yes
