Ceist:

Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport (Deputy Leo Varadkar)

The question appears to relate to a decision by a local authority to not apply for funding for a particular project under the 2012 Sports Capital Programme. I have no responsibility for a decision by a potential applicant on whether or not to apply under the programme.
