View answerThe second iteration of the Community Recognition Fund is being delivered over three tranches so as allow flexibility at a local level to respond to new emerging priorities.
Last August, €16.5 million was approved to deliver 185 community projects across the country under the first tranche of the 2024 fund. I expect to announce the successful projects under the second tranche shortly. The third and final tranche of applications is currently open for applications from local authorities until 28 February.
