The Deputy and I both know the benefits of CLÁR funding well. The Deputy has been on to me about different projects. Kilnaleck recently received €50,000 for the upgrade of the playground and St. Anne's National School's parents' association got €45,000 to build a multi-use games area, MUGA. Lavey Community Group got €50,000 to provide wheelchair access. The Brackley Lake Geopark Amenity Area, with which the Deputy will be extremely familiar, received €50,000, and Ballymachugh GAA and Sheelin Park, another community the Deputy will know, got €23,000 for an astro turf carpark.

The grants are small, as the Deputy and I are aware, but they are very important to these communities. The grants are simple enough to get in that one applies to the local authority which assesses the application and sends it on to my Department for us to work on it. Cavan town, Clonervy, Moynehall and Ballyhaise are the only areas not included in CLÁR-----
