Heather Humphreys (FG), Cavan-Monaghan

I still have to announce the successful applications under the CCIF. The applications are being assessed and there is a lot of work in it. We are going to do it in three phases, with the smaller applications first, the results of which I hope to announce in October. That is the plan. They are all being processed and assessed independently and we hope to have the first announcements in October.
I am working on a new fund for new centres. I take Deputy Connolly's point about the particular situation in Galway, which has been raised with me on a number of occasions. All I can say at the moment is that we certainly are looking at what we can do around a new scheme. The Deputies will appreciate that we have to find €72 million for the existing applications. I will do my best and I ask them all to support me when I look for more money.
