Will the Minister clarify the amounts of those small grants? Are they less than €50,000? Are they less than €20,000? What does a small grant mean when it comes to this type of money?

The Minister referred to the Border counties. Consider for example Oldbridge in County Meath. I sought development funding to improve that area. It is completely out of this programme because County Meath would not get any funding out of this programme, or very little would come. Is there room to improve the geographical stretch of this programme?
