Departmental Funding
Dail Éireann — 2023-04-25
============================================================

David Stanton (FG), Cork East

I thank the Minister for all the work she is doing in this area. Are these schemes community-led in the main? Do they come from the ground up rather than being imposed by local authorities?
I ask because sometimes, schemes open and close quite quickly and people do not have time to make the application. There is a very short window in which one can make an application. Will the Minister keep in mind the giving of time to people and community groups? Will she make sure they are advertised pretty well in order that people know about them and present the detail in a user-friendly fashion?
