406. Deputy Jackie Cahill asked the Minister for Rural and Community Development when she expects all of the remaining categories in the community centre development fund to be announced; if she will provide an update on the application for a community organisation (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [61588/22]
View answerAll applications to the Community Centres Investment Fund are subject to a competitive assessment process based on the assessment criteria as set out in the fund guidelines.
Category 1 applicants were notified of the outcome of this process in October. Details of successful applicants are available on my department’s website at www.gov.ie/drcd.
The group the Deputy refers to applied for Category 3 funding under the Community Centres Investment Fund. Due to the high level of applications to the fund, the appraisal took longer than initially expected, however, it has now been completed and I expect to announce details of successful applications under both Category 2 and 3 in the coming days.
