Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 1 December 2015
587. Deputy Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if an announcement is imminent regarding the allocation of money for the construction of an on-site communal facility at Castleblayney Care Housing Association at Drumilliard in Castleblayney, County Monaghan; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [42850/15]
View answerMy Department is providing €2.3 million through the Capital Assistance Scheme for the construction by Castleblayney Care Housing Association of 18 units of accommodation at Drumilliard, Castleblayney, County Monaghan, to cater for persons with disabilities. I understand that this scheme is largely complete and 10 of the 18 units have tenants allocated to them.
A second application has been submitted for the provision of an additional two units of accommodation and a communal facility on the site. A decision on funding for this proposal will be made following the completion of the first scheme, the submission of final account, a post-project review and confirmation from Monaghan County Council that all units provided under the first scheme are fully tenanted.
