The organisation referred to by the Deputy made an application under the 2017 Sports Capital Programme (SCP). The application was deemed invalid due to incorrect or insufficient supporting documentation and the organisation was given full details in this regard. All invalid applicants under the 2017 round of the SCP were invited to appeal this decision if they felt that the Department had erred in making their application invalid. The club in question did not appeal the Department's decision.
Furthermore, in March 2018 the club along with all other invalid applicants were informed that they would be able to correct their 2017 application for consideration under the 2018 SCP without the need to submit a complete new application. On 7 September, when the 2018 programme opened for applications, the organisation was invited to either correct their 2017 application or to make a new application. The 2018 round of the SCP closed for applications on Friday 19th October and I understand that no application was submitted by the club.
