This year’s Town and Village Renewal Scheme scheme has an indicative budget allocation of €15 million and places a particular emphasis on projects supporting remote working and enhancing town centre living as outlined in “Our Rural Future – Ireland’s Rural Development Policy 2021-2025.”
The 2021 Scheme closed for applications on Friday 16th July. I can confirm that the applications referred to by the Deputy have been received by my Department under the 2021 Town & Village Renewal Scheme.
All applications are undergoing a formal assessment process, with funding being allocated on foot of the outcome of this process. I expect to announce the successful applications before the end of the year.
