Community Development Projects
Dail Éireann — 2024-01-30
============================================================

David Stanton (FG), Cork East

I recognise that these programmes are visionary and have made a massive difference to the communities in which they are located. Are there plans to carry out an audit of communities that have nothing, neither old community centres that can be renovated nor shovel-ready projects? They start, as I think colleagues said, from a low place when they have no place at all. I am aware of a number in my area that have no community centre or building that could be renovated. Will the Minister consider carrying out an audit to give these people the leg up they need to get started?
