572. Deputy Jackie Cahill asked the Minister for Rural and Community Development the cumulative funding provided under the town and village renewal scheme, including streetscape enhancement measures, in each county from 2020 to date in 2024, in tabular form. [37905/24]

The Town and Village Renewal Scheme (TVRS) was introduced in 2016 and is one of a number of measures designed to rejuvenate rural towns and villages throughout Ireland. Since the launch of the scheme over €177 million has been allocated to almost 1,800 projects. The Scheme is primarily targeted at towns and villages with a population of 10,000 or less.

TVRS is administered through local authorities, who work closely with local communities and businesses to develop proposals that will bring long-lasting, positive impacts to rural towns and villages.

Earlier this year, in recognition of the need for additional supports required to achieve the goals set out in the Town Centre First Policy (TCF), I launched a new TCF Suite of Supports which is providing an additional €4 million across 3 measures to support broader efforts to regenerate town centres through a bottom-up approach. One such measure supports the completion of Project Development Measure (PDM) projects and on the 23 August 2024, I announced €2.6 million in funding to support 53 successful projects.

The allocations in the table below include the amounts awarded under TVRS and the TCF Suite of Supports PDM; successful projects under the 2024 PDM are available on my Departments website.
