My Department has received over 2,170 applications for funding under the 2012 Sports Capital Programme.  This is the largest number of applications ever received under the programme. Departmental officials are processing the applications and this process will take some time due to the volume of applications received.  I expect to be in a position to announce the  successful applicants later this year.  All applicants will be informed of the outcome of their application at that stage.  After allocations have been made, grantees will have to satisfy certain terms and conditions such as tendering and tax clearance compliance before any payments can be made.
