297 Deputy Pat Breen asked the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism his plans to introduce a players grant scheme for camogie players and ladies football players; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [34827/07]
View answerThe agreement reached between my Department, the Irish Sports Council, the GAA and the GPA, is in recognition of the contribution of Senior Inter County players to our indigenous sports of hurling and football. The scheme is a response to a joint submission from the GAA and the GPA for support for Senior Inter County players and I have no plans to extend the scheme to other team sports.
