Heather Humphreys (FG), Cavan-Monaghan

I thank the Deputy. As he says, community centres are at the heart of every community. We need places for people to meet up, to play sport and engage in all sorts of activities. The centres are important and we support them in every way we can. We have a community activities fund, under which Galway City Council was allocated €264,910. Galway County Council got €286,000. Under the 2021 community enhancement programme, the allocation for Galway City Council was €132,000 and that for Galway County Council was €43,000. Under the community activities fund, considerable funding was allocated. We are opening a new fund but have not finalised the details yet. We will be doing so shortly. I know the funding will be welcome. I thank the Deputy.
