View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 544, 548 and 549 together.
No decision has been made on the timing or any other aspects of any future rounds of the Sports Capital Programme.
No provision was made in the Estimates for a new round of allocations in 2016. In any case, allocations are not generally paid in the year in which they are allocated.
Any interested group should register online now at www.sportscapitalprogramme.ie as this portal will be the only way to apply under any future rounds of the Programme.
