Vol. 450 No. 1
20 Mr. Kenneally asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht if he will approve a grant to Garter Lane Arts Centre in Waterford under his Department's cultural development incentive scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4620/95]
An application for financial assistance under the cultural development incentives scheme, to be administered by my Deparmtent under the Operational Programme for Tourism 1994-99, has been received in respect of proposed renovations and improvements to existing structures at the Garter Lane Arts Centre in Waterford. I will soon be finalising arrangements for the processing of applications under this scheme.
Due to a large number of applications received and the detail nature of the evaluation process, it is expected that it will be some time before decisions are made on the projects to be funded for 1995.
