Funding was provided for two separate projects coordinated by Louth County Council. Special dispensation was obtained from DPER to spend the funds outside of the normal grant period.
Louth County Council have indicated that despite delays to one of the projects, due to Covid-19, they intend on utilising the full allocation.
