Written answers

My Department does not directly fund any not-for-profit organisation, charity or service provider. With regards to agencies under my Departments aegis, the following are directly funded:-

• Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

• Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI)

• Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI)

• Loughs Agency (North South Body funded on a 50:50 basis between Ireland and Northern Ireland)

• Maritime Area Regulatory Authority (MARA).

Funding provided directly to agencies and bodies under aegis of my Department funds the operations, including all associated posts. The details of each specific post funded in this way is an operational matter for each agency, and as such the Deputy may wish to contact those agencies directly. Contact details are set out in the attached document for ease of reference.
