Olwyn Enright (Laois-Offaly, Fine Gael)

Has the Minister had any formal discussions with her Cabinet colleague in the Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism with a view to ensuring that if he provides a grant to a club, those facilities would be accessible to a school? I appreciate that is being done on an ad hoc basis but will the Minister have more formal negotiations with her colleague with a view to ensuring a better allocation of resources? Perhaps it could be made mandatory in giving a grant that the facilities would be available to local schools.
