My Department does not provide funding for film projects. The Irish Film Board is the statutory body with responsibility for all film related matters, including the funding of film projects. All funding decisions are handled by the Irish Film Board and my Department has no role in the operation of their various programmes and schemes.

Detailed information regarding the role of the Irish Film Board in supporting the Irish film industry is available from their website at .
