Minister for Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs

There are a number of such schemes available across the range of my Department’s activities and these are set out on my Department’s website, including, where appropriate, the recipients of these grants, etc. My Department would be happy to provide further details on any specific scheme in which the Deputy may be interested.
