I welcome the allocation of€192,000 by Minister Malcolm Noonan to a number of projects throughout Cavan and Monaghan under the government’s Built Heritage Investment Scheme.

This funding is important in assisting the preservation and restoration of our built heritage.  The Heritage Minister stated that this year’s funding represents 12.5% increase on the 2022 allocation and it underlines this government’s continuing commitment to protect and preserve our built environment.  I also compliment Cavan and Monaghan County Councils and their Heritage Officers in progressing these applications.

I wish all the successful applicants every success with their projects.
