576. Deputy Jackie Cahill asked the Minister for Rural and Community Development the cumulative funding provided under the rural regeneration fund, in each county from 2020 to date in 2024, in tabular form. [37909/24]
View answerThe Rural Regeneration and Development Fund is a strategic capital investment fund that is key to the delivery of Ireland's rural development policy, Our Rural Future 2021-2025.
The Rural Regeneration and Development Fund (RRDF) provides funding for the development and construction of capital projects in towns, villages and rural areas across Ireland.
Calls for applications to the Fund are sought under two categories – Category 1 and Category 2. Category 1 relates to large scale ambitious capital projects with all necessary planning and other consents in place and ready to proceed. Category 2 provides grant funding to enable the development of project proposals suitable for future calls for Category 1 applications.
Since 2020, RRDF funding of €422.8 million has been approved for 135 projects countrywide.
The table below sets out the funding allocated to each county from 2020 to date in 2024. No RRDF funding was allocated in the 2023 calendar year.
