To ask the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht further to Parliamentary Question No. 286 of 25 October 2022, if she will clarify the reason that the list of grantees of the live performance restart grant scheme has still not been published on the website as promised in the reply; and if she will provide a date as to when they will be published.

The Live Performance Restart Grant Scheme (LPRGS) was launched in March to provide a new grant for businesses engaged in staging live events in the arts and culture live performance sector. This scheme has supported the live entertainment sector by providing business re-start grants to de-risk the planning of events and to assist with the costs of reopening following the lifting of COVID-19 public health restrictions.

The payments process for this scheme has now concluded and €14.8m has been paid to successful grantees. Details of grantees are published on gov.ie at the following location - www.gov.ie/en/publication/d1d0c-live-performance-restart-grant-scheme-lprgs-guidelines/.
