Urban Development
Seanad Éireann — 2022-03-08
============================================================

Emer Currie (FG), Nominated by the Taoiseach

When I talk to local authorities about access to town and village and the urban regeneration and development fund and even the regional enterprise funding that is available, they say they are not able to get support from those schemes. Will there be new schemes or will the schemes be tweaked so that areas such as Blanchardstown and Castleknock get access to them? I agree that bringing together the stakeholders of a village is great. There is a development plan. There will be an urban planning framework for those different areas and hopefully between the development plan and this work and connecting the two there could be some great proposals that we can apply for funding under.
