Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage

The information requested is being compiled and will be forwarded to the Deputy in accordance with Standing Orders.

The following deferred reply was received under Standing Orders.

My Department, through its various business units, enters into contracts for capital projects directly across the country, which are funded under the allocated Voted provision. For the purposes of the question raised, I can confirm there have been no capital projects contracted and funded directly by my Department in Galway that were completed on time and within budget in the past five years, of a value greater than €250,000.

In parallel, my Department has provided substantial funding for capital projects which are contracted and administered by state bodies under the aegis of my Department and local authorities over the last 5 years, including projects such as those listed.

My Department is not the contracting authority in these projects and therefore does not maintain the requested information in respect of the State bodies under its aegis. Arrangements have been put in place by all bodies under the aegis of my Department to facilitate the provision of information directly to members of the Oireachtas. This provides a speedy, efficient and cost effective system to address queries directly to the relevant bodies. These bodies may be contacted directly by e-mail by members of the Oireachtas, as set out in Table 1.

My Department does not collate information on local authority-led projects. The relevant local authorities may be contacted directly, and further information is available at the following link: Find my Local Authority | Local Government Ireland. - www.localgov.ie/find-my-local-authority?county=70
