Organisations in Northern Ireland's poorest areas face 'a slap on the face' over budget delays, SouthBelfastPB says:
There are 36 schemes called "neighbourhood renewal partnerships" across Northern Ireland, operating in the most deprived council areas.
But a letter from DfC's permanent secretary Colum Boyle to all of the groups said that DfC was only able to confirm their 2023/24 funding up until the 30 June 2023. "I hope you will understand why this allocation cannot be interpreted as an assurance as to the level of funding available for the remainder of 2023/24, given the absence of clarity on the overall budget settlement for the department."
The Greater Village Regeneration Trust works in the Donegall Road and Village areas of south Belfast.
