The second tranche of GLAS Traditional Farm Buildings Grant Scheme closed for applications on 18 November 2016. The scheme is administered by The Heritage Council on behalf of my Department. A total of 93 applications were shortlisted and grant offers will issue to the successful applicants by mid May.

I plan to open a further tranche of this very successful scheme later this year for applications for works to be undertaken in 2018.
