Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Urban and Rural Regeneration: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Maria Graham:

Some €1.6 billion has been approved to date from the last round of funding. It is important for us to get a geographical spread and recognise the size of different cities. That is reflected in what we have done. As the projects have developed, it has become clear that there is a need to separate towns and cities. Due to the Town Centre First policy, towns will be addressed the first and the cities will follow on from that. The focus for this year is on getting the projects that are already approved under way. Ms Clifford has been involved in the project board so she might want to say something on this.
