751. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media the status of an application by a club (details supplied) for the sports capital programme; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [35249/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Sports Capital Programme is the Government's primary vehicle for supporting new and upgraded sports facilities and equipment across the country. The 2023 round of the programme attracted a record number of applications and in May I was delighted to announce the first round of grants of €26 million for equipment-only projects.
The assessment of funding applications for capital projects, including the application referred to by the Deputy, is now at an advanced stage and I expect to announce allocations in the coming weeks.
