Amharc ar fhreagraThe centre to which the Deputy refers was awarded a significant capital grant for the enhancement and refurbishment of this cultural venue in 2017. This grant was awarded under the Arts and Culture Capital scheme 2016-2018.
Officials in my Department are in active correspondence with the project developers in relation to the progress on the project, which is currently at planning and tendering stage. As with all capital grants from my Department, the allocation is managed under a Service Level Agreement (SLA) with the project promoter. The SLA sets out a number of conditions around the management of the project including the period of time for drawdown of grant.
