Capital funding for arts and cultural projects supported by my Department is primarily provided from the Cultural Development subhead, D5, of Vote 35 of the Revised Estimates Volume.

Under this subhead, capital grants have been awarded for the development of arts and cultural infrastructure throughout the country. Integrated arts centres, theatres, museums, galleries, arts studios and creative and performance spaces have received capital funding. The capital funding provided to the National Cultural Institutions is set out in Votes 33 and 35 of the Revised Estimates Volume. The tables beneath set out the payments made under the aforementioned subhead D5 in 2009 and in 2010 to date.
