Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail the grant funding bids for the Road Safety Grant Scheme that were rejected.

Answer:

The maximum amount available for project funding through the 2020/2021 Road Safety (Safe Travel) Grant Scheme is £100,000. My Department received 61 applications for funding. Each application was assessed by a panel of officials against the published criteria for the scheme.

Of the 61 applications, 14 projects met the criteria and received funding totalling approximately £87,000. The remaining 47 projects did not meet the funding criteria and therefore did not receive funding. The unsuccessful projects are listed below.
