The Government has allocated €250m for the Restart Grant Scheme.
A funding tranche of €200m was made immediately to the 31 local authorities, collectively, to meet the initial applications from qualifying businesses associated with Phases 1 and 2 of the Government’s Roadmap for the re-opening of the business sector .
The Scheme is subject to ongoing review and oversight by my Department in the context of potential further grant aid and the liquidity challenges faced by microenterprises and SMEs.
I have set out in the following table the amounts advanced to each Local Authority:
