My Department has responsibility for the Social Inclusion and Community Activation Programme (SICAP) 2018 – 2023 that provides funding to tackle poverty and social exclusion at a local level through local engagement and partnerships between disadvantaged individuals, community organisations and public sector agencies.

SICAP is managed at a local level by 33 Local Community Development Committees (LCDCs), with support from local authorities. It is implemented nationally by 46 Local Development Companies (LDCs) across 51 areas (Lots).  

The SICAP budget for Dublin Ballymun, Whitehall & Tolka (2-2) which includes Finglas, Dublin 11 is allocated at Lot level and the annual plan actions are implemented at Lot level. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a breakdown of spend across specific areas within a Lot.  

The following table outlines the funding to Dublin Ballymun, Whitehall & Tolka (Lot 2-2) from 2018 to 2022.

YEAR LOT AREA  (Ballymun, Whitehall and Tolka)
2018 2-2
2019 2-2
2020 2-2
2021 2-2
2022 2-2
