Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 3 October 2019
292. Deputy Róisín Shortall asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the reason, in the case of each local sports partnership that did not receive funding, no allocation was made under the women in sport programmes in 2018. [40225/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraSport Ireland, which is funded by my Department, is the statutory body with responsibility for the development of sport, increasing participation at all levels and raising standards, including the allocation of funding across its various programmes. This includes the allocation of funding to Local Sports Partnerships. I have no role in the process.
I have 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.
