Amharc ar fhreagra1304. Deputy Peter Burke asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if the significant budget changes in an organisation (details supplied) will be examined; if a clarification of a rise in staff costs and reduction in athlete grants will be sought; if an explanation from the organisation on the new ratio split between staff costs and athlete funding will be sought; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 1298 and 1304 together.
Sport Ireland is the statutory body with responsibility for the promotion, development and co-ordination of sport. This includes responsibility for the allocation of funding to the National Governing Bodies of sport, including to the organisation mentioned by the Deputy. I have therefore referred the Deputy's question to Sport Ireland for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to inform my office if a reply is not received within 10 days.
