1116. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he and his Department continue to liaise with various sporting groups that have been the beneficiaries of sports capital grants in the past with a view to ensuring that all such grants are used effectively and efficiently and in circumstances in which difficulties have arisen, assistance of a constructive nature might be offered; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Sports Capital Programme is the primary vehicle for Government support for the development of sports and physical recreation facilities and the purchase of non-personal sports equipment throughout the country. As a matter of course, officials in the Sports Capital Programmes Division of my Department continually liaise with relevant clubs/organisations from the time of the provisional allocation to the final payment of the grant. In this regard, the officials are always available to discuss any issues that may arise with any sports organisation. Contact details for the relevant officials in the Sports Capital Division that deal with each county are available on www.sportscapitalprogramme.ie.
