Funding under the CLÁR Programme for the projects referred to by the Deputy was approved in August 2008. In line with the normal arrangements that apply, it is a matter for the applicant to subsequently draw down the funding based on progress in completing the works. To date, all funding claimed and vouched by the applicant in question has been paid. This represents the majority of the funding that was originally approved. The balance of the funding will be provided when claimed validly by the applicant, in line with the conditions of the original approval.
