Written Answers. - Tipperary Excel Project.

Noel Davern

Question:

108 Mr. Davern asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht if he has received an application from the Excel project in Tipperary town; if so, when a decision will be made in this regard; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6249/97]

I can confirm that on 27 February 1997 I approved, in principle, an offer of grant assistance to an absolute maximum sum of £650,000 towards the cost of developing the Tipperary Exel project under Phase II of the cultural development incentives scheme which I am administering under the Operational Programme for Tourism 1994-99. The offer of grant assistance for this project will be confirmed as soon as a number of issues relating to the project are resolved to my Department's satisfaction, including in particular firm confirmation of the availability of all matching funds required to complete the project.
