As the Deputy is aware in December 2020, I announced record funding of €3.2 million to 101 animal welfare organisations throughout the country.  This included an award of €15,000 to ISPCA Limerick who submitted an application in summer 2020.  

Following the announcement of the funding allocation, the ISPCA advised the Department that they were not assigning an officer to the Limerick area in 2021.  The allocated funding has been repaid to my Department.
