Departmental Expenditure
219. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media if a capital grant that had been earmarked for a town (details supplied) in County Kerry by her Department in the past remains available; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [28681/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department does not provide funding to organisations to purchase land or buildings.
In April 2007, a grant of €1.5m under the ACCESS II scheme was awarded in principle for a construction project at the The Boatyard Site, Dingle. There were conditions attached to the grant including that funds be drawn down by the end of 2010. I understand that the grant was withdrawn as none of the conditions were met.
