Written Answers - Sports Capital Programme.
The sports capital programme for 2001 was advertised in mid-December 2000 with a closing date of 9 February 2001 for the receipt of completed applications. In excess of 1,450 applications were received, including one from the organisation in question. All applications are currently being evaluated against the programme's assessment criteria, which are outlined in the guidelines which accompanied the application form. I intend to announce the grant allocations for the programme as soon as possible after the assessment process has been completed.

The sports capital programme for 2001 was advertised in mid-December 2000 with a closing date of 9 February 2001 for the receipt of completed applications. In excess of 1,450 applications were received and these are currently being assessed in accordance with the programme's assessment criteria. I intend to announce the grant allocations for the programme as soon as possible after the assessment process has been completed. Under the assessment process, each application receives a score which decides its order of priority within its own county. Recommendations, based on conclusions from this process and having regard to the amount of funding available for distribution, the population of the county and the quality of the applications from the county, are then made. Therefore, my Department's records on the programme are maintained on a county basis only.
