Specific funding of €3.5 million was not set aside for these projects in 2014. However, my Department has worked with Meath County Council recently in undertaking various works in these areas relating to energy efficiency improvements and the remediation of boarded-up social housing units. The options for further improvement works are being examined by the Council and my Department will consider these when they are submitted.
