Local authorities were issued with a circular on 1 April this year inviting applications for funding under the Community Involvement Scheme with a deadline of 2 May 2014.
My Department recently received applications from 25 county councils for funding under this scheme of grants. All of these applications are being assessed in my Department and it is hoped to announce the allocations to local authorities shortly.
