My Department is currently reviewing the provisions of the local authority conservation grants scheme. This scheme is aimed at assisting owners and occupiers to carry out conservation works on structures which are listed in the Record of Protected Structures contained in local authority development plans. The provision of funding towards conservation works on structures in architectural conservation areas, which are not protected structures, is amongst the issues being considered in the review.
