187. To ask the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht further to Parliamentary Question No. 244 of 2 May 2024, if she will outline the progress that has been made by Fáilte Ireland under the just transition fund to purchase and run a hotel (details supplied); and if an application has been made by Failte Ireland to the fund.

In relation to the previous Parliamentary Question referenced by the Deputy, it was stated that Tipperary County Council had identified the EU Just Transition Fund as a possible funding source to progress opportunities for Roscrea.

With regard to the administration of the EU Just Transition Fund, the Eastern and Midland Regional Assembly (EMRA) is the Managing Authority and Fáilte Ireland is an Intermediate Body tasked with the implementation of a Regenerative Tourism and Placemaking Scheme in the period 2023-2026. Accordingly, I have referred this question to Failte Ireland to provide any further relevant information directly to the Deputy. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
