The operation of my Department's Built Heritage Jobs Leverage Scheme in 2014 has been devolved to each local authority with allocations calculated by population size and number of protected structures in the geographical area served by each authority.

Applications from private individuals under the scheme are currently being accepted and assessed directly by local authorities. I have requested that local authorities submit a list of applications to me for approval by the 28^th February 2014. As I have not yet received these lists, the information requested by the Deputy is not yet available.
