Over 550 B&Bs in Kerry are now eligible to benefit from the Restart Grant for Enterprises.
Fine Gael TD Brendan Griffin says the grant is being expanded by €300m and extended to a broader base of SMEs, including B&Bs.
Deputy Griffin says the funding will be a welcome boost to the tourism sector in Kerry and will help get 555 B&Bs in Kerry back on their feet.
He says the expanded grant, combined with the government’s Stay and Spend incentive, will help the tourism sector in the county as it recovers from COVID-19.
