524. Deputy Aidan Farrelly asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage if he will provide an update in respect of the Bray harbour URDF project; if funding for additional local authority staff has been approved and allocated; if he will detail the scope of the works to be carried out initially; and if the local authority has advanced planning for the project and the amount of funding drawn down to date.

I refer to my reply to Dáil Question No. 1031 of 18 March 2026. I can confirm that the position remains unchanged in that respect.

To date, Wicklow County Council has drawn down €99,933.79 in URDF support for its Bray Harbour Integrated Regeneration proposal. This is comprised of €14,370.30 for Staff Resources and €85,563.49 for works.

In respect of projects supported by the Towns and Cities Regeneration Investment Fund (formerly the URDF), responsibility for their advancement through the various stages of the project lifecycle is a matter for the relevant Sponsoring Authority (Wicklow County Council in this instance).
