Vol. 561 No. 4
271 Mr. F. McGrath asked the Minister for Education and Science his views on a query (details supplied); and if he will reinstate this grant. [4306/03]
281 Mr. Rabbitte asked the Minister for Education and Science the formula for calculating the amount of such grants as allocated to schools in 2002 in relation to the annual grant to primary schools to support the development of sport and physical education in those schools; the total cost of such grants to the Exchequer in 2002; if this grant has been cut in respect of 2003; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that this is the only amount specifically earmarked by his Department for physical education in primary schools; the organisations he consulted before cutting the grant; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4493/03]
I propose to take questions Nos. 271 and 281 together.
