Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 30 May 2024
270. Deputy Michael Moynihan asked the Minister for Rural and Community Development the funding allocated to each county in each of the years 2020 to 2023 and to date in 2024 under the ORIS programme, in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [24559/24]
View answerThe Outdoor Recreation Infrastructure Scheme (ORIS) is funded by my Department under Our Rural Future. The scheme provides funding for the development and enhancement of outdoor recreational infrastructure such as walking trails, cycleways and blue ways throughout rural Ireland. Since the launch of the scheme in 2016, funding of over €113 million has supported more than 1,700 projects across the country.
As requested, please find below a table detailing funding approved for each county under ORIS 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023. This information relates to the amount approved under each annual iteration of the scheme rather than in the calendar year. For example, Measure 1 projects under the ORIS 2023 scheme were formally announced at the start of 2024 but are included under the ORIS 2023 scheme below. I will announce approvals from the 2023 scheme under measures 2 and 3 very shortly.
I expect to launch the 2024 scheme later in the year, as such no specific county allocations have been made as yet for the 2024 iteration of the scheme.
