101 Mr. Molloy asked the Minister for Education if she has received a report from the Sport Strategy Group regarding the provision of a 50 metre swimming pool; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [6930/97]
The report of the Sports Strategy Group was received by my Department in December 1996 and was launched on 18 February 1997. The report recommends the provision of a 50 metre training pool which is linked to a recognised training centre with residential accommodation, sports science, medical support and ancillary training facilities. This recommendation is currently under consideration.
