for Northern Ireland on 4 February (under Table reference no.

each of the last five years, broken down by project.

The information details funding made available
to minority ethnic voluntary organ isations from the following
sources; European programmes managed by Government Departments;
funding from the Equality Commission NI; funding from the Community
Relations Council; funding from Government agencies and non-departmental
public bodies in the five financial years covering April 1998

central management and administrative costs, and project funding,
to enable organisations to develop and provide services.
