The information requested by the Deputy in respect of the years 2016 to 2018 is outlined in tabular format:

YearNumber of Proceedings Initiated
20165
20172
20184
Total11

I have also been informed by Údarás na Gaeltachta that they have received repayment in respect of one company. A number of other companies are currently in the process of being liquidated. The combined value of the total grants revoked in the period in question - 2016 to 2018 - amounted to €1,196,866.80.
