In August 2004 my Department sought applications from local authorities for funding for non-national roads in 2005 under the EU co-financed specific improvements grants scheme. The initial selection of projects to be submitted for consideration for funding under this scheme is a matter for local authorities. No application was submitted by Cork County Council in respect of a relief road at Bantry.
