Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 7 July 2015
307. Deputy Michael McCarthy asked the Minister for Health if national lottery funding will be provided in respect of a sports club (details supplied) in County Cork; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26938/15]
View answerAs the Deputy will be aware, my Department administers a National Lottery Discretionary Fund from which once-off grants are paid to community and voluntary organisations providing a range of health related services. Funding in 2015 amounts to €3.286m.
My Department has received a large number of applications under the National Lottery Discretionary Fund which are currently being processed. However, there is no record of an application for the organisation referred to by the Deputy.
