[7854/19]
View answerThe Department of Rural and Community Development has not directly undertaken any capital projects since its establishment in July 2017.
The capital funding available to the Department is utilised at programme level to support local authorities and others in the delivery of individual capital projects. To date, such programmes include the Town and Village Renewal Scheme, Outdoor Recreation Infrastructure Scheme, CLÁR, Community Enhancement Programme, Libraries Capital Investment Programme, and the LEADER Programme. The projects involved are small in nature, and there are no capital projects funded under these schemes with a cost of €10 million or greater.
