Question:

334 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation when a sports complex (details supplied) in County Mayo will be paid the £15,000 grant as sanctioned by the former Minister of State at the Department of Education; and if the money is currently in place to pay this grant.

Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation (Dr. McDaid)

A grant of £15,000 was allocated to the sports complex in November 1996. A deed of trust which must be executed with my Department prior to payment, is currently being arranged by the chief State solicitor's office and the solicitors acting on behalf of the sports complex.
