On 30 January 2009 I announced funding of €13 million for the improvement of five disadvantaged local authority estates at various locations around the country including Parkview, Charlestown, Co. Mayo. The project involves, inter alia, the refurbishment of 23 dwellings and the construction of 7 new units. A detailed design and cost plan was submitted to my Department by Mayo County Council on 10 September. This is being examined at present with a view to approving the project to progress to tender stage.
