Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 October 2020
350. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage when decisions will be made on applications made to the urban regeneration and development fund 2020; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [28573/20]
Amharc ar fhreagraA second call for proposals under the URDF was launched earlier this year. Seventy six proposals were received, with every local authority submitting at least one application for URDF support.
Because of the nature of the URDF programme the proposals are very complex, and each will require detailed assessment.
The assessment process is presently under way. It is intended that a new tranche of approved proposals, which will augment the existing pipeline of projects from Call 1 and contribute to the achievement of Programme for Government commitments and the objectives of the National Planning Framework and Project Ireland 2040, will be announced later in the year.
