Question:

155 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation the reason a grant sanctioned for a club (details supplied) in County Cork has not been paid to date; and the information or documents to be supplied by the club in order to drawdown the grant. [2329/99]

A grant of £3,000 was allocated to the club in 1996 under the Department's recreational facilities scheme. In line with standard procedures, payment of the grant is subject to the club providing specific documentation and information confirming that the proposal complies with the terms and conditions of the programme. To date, the only documentation received from the club relates to their tax details. My Department wrote to the club on 18 August 1998 requesting the outstanding documentation required in order that the grant may be formally confirmed. The club has not responded to this letter to date. As soon as the documentation requested is received and found to be in order, payment will be made.
