230. Deputy Jackie Cahill asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht if she will provide funding for a club (details supplied) as part of their application to attain funding to repair a protected historical structure on its property; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

View answerMy Department operates a Structures at Risk Fund to enable conservation works to heritage structures, in both private and public ownership, that are protected under the Planning and Development Acts and are deemed to be at significant risk of deterioration. An application has been received from the club in question under the Structures at Risk Fund and this is currently under consideration along with all other applications received for the 2016 scheme. Once concluded, I would expect to announce successful applications under the scheme in due course.
