Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 18 October 2022
320. Deputy Paul Murphy asked the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media if funding will be made available to the Irish Athletic Boxing Association to ensure that all those who have qualified for selection to represent Ireland at the world youth boxing championships can attend. [51471/22]
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. This includes the allocation of funding to sporting organisations, including the Irish Athletic Boxing Association (IABA), across its various programmes.
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.
