My Department is conducting an internal review of the operation of the 2012 Sports Capital Programme.  This review has included discussions with the Office of the Chief State Solicitor. A primary purpose of the review is to simplify and streamline the application process, thereby reducing the proportion of invalid applications.  Consequently consideration is being given to the greater use of templates, including a template for applicants to provide evidence of title.  A draft of such a template is being prepared in conjunction with the CSSO.  It is however always the responsibility of applicants to ensure that they read the application form and guide carefully and provide the information required.
