324. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the funding allocation for the past five years to the various sporting bodies and to the Olympic Council of Ireland, in tabular form. [34390/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraSport Ireland, which is funded by my Department, is the statutory body with responsibility for the promotion, development and co-ordination of sport. This includes responsibility for the allocation of funding to National Governing Bodies of Sport.
As this question is a matter for Sport Ireland, I have referred it to Sport Ireland for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to inform my office if a reply is not received within 10 days.
Details of grants provided to sporting bodies under my Department's Sports Capital Programme are published on my Department's website www.dttas.ie.
The referred reply under Standing Order 42A was forwarded to the Deputy.
