6. Payment of Exchequer funds

Section 19 (1) of the 1997 Act provides that payments are made in arrears on a quarterly basis by the Department of Finance to qualified parties who apply for such payments. Payments apply from polling day at a Dáil general election until the day before polling day at the next following such election. If the Dáil is dissolved in the middle of a quarter, payments are made on a pro rata basis from the beginning of the quarter to the date of dissolution.
