Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 14 December 2017
728. Deputy Thomas Pringle asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the amount of funding given to fire services in each county in each of the years 2012 to 2017, in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [53712/17]
View answerThe provision of a fire service in its functional area, including the establishment and maintenance of a fire brigade, the assessment of fire cover needs and the provision of fire station premises, is a statutory function of individual fire authorities under the Fire Service Act, 1981. My Department supports the fire authorities through setting general policy, providing a central training programme, issuing guidance on operational and other related matters and providing capital funding for priority infrastructural projects.
The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the following table:
