279. Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the position of an application under the large scale sport infrastructure fund by a club (details supplied); when he will announce the grant allocations under the fund; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [47999/19]
View answerThe Large Scale Sport Infrastructure Fund opened for applications on 19th November 2018 and the closing date for receipt of applications was 17th April 2019.
72 applications were received in total . Details of all applications received have been published on the Department's website. The detailed evaluation process has also been published on the Department's website.
As set out in this evaluation process, applicants were given an opportunity to provide corrected and amended documentation, where necessary, in support of applications. This part of the process is now complete and detailed assessment work of the applications has commenced. In view of the detailed information contained in each application I expect that it will be towards the end of this year before assessments are completed.
