In 2007, a capital grant of €2 million was approved in principle for the Tullamore Arts Centre.
The Local Authority in question has recently contacted my Department to confirm that it intends to progress the project further. I can confirm that approval in relation to this project remains open and that my Department will be in contact with the Local Authority over the coming days.
Similar to all capital grants, the funding is conditional on compliance with the specific terms and conditions which relate to it and is also subject to the Public Spending Code and Department of Public Expenditure and Reform Circular 13/2014.
