Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 February 2004
352 Mr. Wall asked the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism the number of applications received by his Department for the sports capital funding for 2004; the breakdown of the applicants on a county basis; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4679/04]
View answerThe national lottery funded sports capital programme administered by my Department allocates funding to sporting and community organisations at local, regional and national level throughout the country. The programme is advertised on an annual basis.
The 2004 sports capital programme was advertised in the national newspapers on 30 November and 1 December 2003. The closing date for receipt of applications was 16 January 2004. A total of 1,302 applications were received before the closing date. A schedule of the application numbers from each county under the programme for the Deputy's information follows. These applications are being evaluated against the programme's assessment criteria, which are outlined in the guidelines, terms and conditions of the programme. I intend to announce the grant allocations for the programme as soon as possible after the assessment process has been completed.
