In addition, the initial agreement was extended for two more years at a rate of 45,000 euros per year until 2010 for further restoration of the heritage of the Church defined yet. In total, the Council will provide 225,000 euros in three annual installments. Among these works might be for views of the adequacy diocesan museum next to the Cathedral and the completion of unfinished projects.
The agreement also envisages the creation of a joint commission Consell-Bishopric that will decide the fate of these contributions.
