151 Ms Fox asked the Minister for Health and Children if funding will be provided for the Bray Cancer Support and Information Centre; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15882/99]

I would like to inform the Deputy that my Department received an application for a grant from the 1999 health and children allocation of national lottery funds from the Bray Cancer Support and Information Centre.

This application is one of many under consideration for a grant from my Department. I will be in touch with the organisation as soon as a decision has been made.
