Can the Minister say whether his Department have been allocated any money from the £1 million that was set aside in respect of centre city activity?

Moneys are allocated to my Department under their own subheads in the normal way.

In other words, is the Minister saying he did not get anything out of this £1 million?

I am not saying anything of the sort. I am telling the Deputy how allocations of money are made.
