278. Deputy Tony McLoughlin asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs if there are any specific community grants available for multicultural integration events under her Department for towns such as Sligo that have a large multicultural society; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [9150/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department and the bodies under its aegis operate a wide range of funding schemes in the areas of arts, culture and heritage. Details of these schemes are made available on my Department's website and the individual website of the bodies concerned. For the Deputy's convenience a summary of the various funding areas and the links to detailed information in respect of funding is set out in the tables below. It would be matter for the organisers of such events to apply for funding for specific events within the terms of the individual schemes.
