The Outdoor Recreation Infrastructure Scheme provides funding to develop new outdoor recreational infrastructure and to maintain, enhance and promote existing infrastructure.

I launched the 2019 Outdoor Recreation Infrastructure Scheme on the 29^thMarch last and applications were invited under three separate measures, based on the scale of the projects. The closing date for applications was the 31^stof May.

I can confirm that an application has been received for Kanturk Town Park Regeneration under the scheme. My officials are currently assessing all of the 260 applications which were received and I will make an announcement in relation to successful applications after the completion of the assessment process.
