Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media

My Department is engaged with Galway 2020 and Galway City and County Councils to support the legacy planning process and the development of the legacy framework arising from Galway's year as European Capital of Culture.

The remaining €1 million of Department funding will support programmes and initiatives under the legacy framework.
