Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 5 February 2015
305. Deputy Terence Flanagan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will provide details of funding for school sports programmes (details supplied) in Dublin 17; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5191/15]
View answerThe Sports Capital Programme, which is administered by my Department, allocates funding to sporting and community organisations, local authorities and, in certain circumstances, schools and colleges, throughout the country. I expect to be in a position to announce details of the 2015 Sports Capital Programme in the near future. The programme is open to all sporting organisations that fulfil the terms and conditions of the programme. A detailed guide to making an application will be available once the Sports Capital Programme has been announced. More details about the programme are available at http://www.dttas.ie/sport/english/sports-capital-programme.
I would advise any club or organisation that is interested in applying for funding to register on the Department’s online system OSCAR at https://www.sportscapitalprogramme.ie.
