Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 November 2021
185. Deputy Cormac Devlin asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications the Dublin local authorities that applied for and were successful under the environmental fund for local authorities since 2010; the amount each of these applications were for; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [54137/21]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe information sought by the Deputy prior to 2016 is not readily available. However, I have identified in the table below total grant funding paid, including support for waste enforcement activities, from the Environment Fund to the Dublin City Council, Dun Laoghaire / Rathdown, Fingal and South Dublin County Councils from 2016 to 2020, inclusive. Section 74(9) of the Waste Management Act, 1996 (as inserted by Section 12 of the Waste Management (Amendment) Act, 2001) specifies the purposes for which payments may be made from the Environment Fund.
