The Minister of State for Heritage Electoral Reform has announced that over €60,000 in state funding has been granted to nine biodiversity projects in Clare.
The funding comes through the Local Biodiversity Action Fund which was launched in 2018 to enable local authorities and communities to deliver on Ireland’s national objectives for nature.
