Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport (Deputy Michael Ring)

The club in question were allocated a grant of €100,000 under the 2005 Sports Capital Programme.  I understand that the club have not been in a position to draw down their grant due to difficulties in satisfying the legal requirements of the Programme.

My Department is available to assist the club with any queries it may have.
