For the purpose of this response, I will assume the Deputy is referring to the National Smart Growth Initiative envisaged under the National Planning Framework to drive and support the aims of Project Ireland 2040, for both urban and rural areas.
This initiative is being implemented through the €2bn Urban Regeneration and Development Fund (URDF) developed and administered by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage to support measures that will contribute to the more sustainable development of cities and large towns. That Department also contributed to the development of the Rural Regeneration and Development Fund (RRDF) process, which is overseen by the Department of Rural and Community Development (DRCD).
My Department has no direct role in the administration of these schemes and I would suggest that the Deputy seek this information from my colleagues, the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage; and the Minister for Rural and Community Development, who will be in a position to provide the details of interest at a county/city council level.
