The Minister for Public Enterprise, Ms Mary O’Rourke, will today announce the successful applicants in the Community Application of Information Technologies (CAIT) initiative.
The Department has received more than 450 proposals for the competition to promote access to information and communications technologies.
The CAIT initiative will make funding available for up to 70 projects across the country, which will aim to tackle the "digital divide".
In total over £4m is being provided by the Government under the initiative which it says is "to assist local communities, women’s groups, Travellers, and others to learn about the ‘Information Age’ in a practical way."
