Mr. Cian Ó Lionáin:

The question has been asked. The quick answer is that the way in which sports grants are applied for, awarded and then drawn down is a cyclical process. No clubs will suffer because of underspend. We hope to announce the current round of sports capital grants in early January. It should be borne in mind that about half of all applicants have already received an equipment grant. That was announced in August. We are trying to maximise the available pot for January by getting as many old grant applicants that are on the system to draw down this year, thereby maximising the pot for next year. That is the quick snapshot of where things are. No applicants will suffer. We are well used to this process.
