Answer

My Department supports heritage sites, both through directly caring for the 186 State Care Monuments under the ownership or guardianship of the Department and through external funding schemes for heritage.

The external funding for heritage sites available from my Department in 2022/23 is set out at: https://www.communities-ni.gov.uk/topics/historic-environment/historic-environment-funding-grants.
