The application referred to by the Deputy was submitted to my Department under the 2020 Town and Village Renewal Scheme. The 2020 scheme had an indicative budget of €25 million, which included an additional €10 million provided as part of the Government’s July Stimulus Package.
The 2020 Scheme included two separate funding Measures - an Accelerated Measure and a Standard Measure.
Funding of €10.4 million was announced under three rounds of the Accelerated Measure during 2020. Last week, I also announced details of 147 projects approved for €15.4 million of funding under the Standard Measure of the Town and Village Renewal Scheme.
I can confirm that the project referred to by the Deputy was amongst the list of projects approved under the Standard Measure.
