Areas of natural constraint funding

Summary

Deputy Neville asked whether promised increases in areas of natural constraint funding would be delivered in 2018 and restored toward pre-2008 levels. Bruton said he could not answer immediately but would get a reply for him.

The programme for Government refers to funding for areas of natural constraint being increased by €25 million in 2018. Will the Government commit to providing that funding in 2018? Will it also explore an increase in that funding and restoring it to pre-2008 levels in light of the backdrop of Brexit and the current review of the areas of natural constraint scheme?
