Jerry Buttimer (Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister for his reply. I would like to comment on two issues. I accept what the Minister has said about the need to review expenditure. What funding mechanism will be put in place to assist clubs now? The Minister did not respond to my remarks about clubs that have already started projects. Can such clubs make applications at a later date?

Second, there seems to be complete confusion about where national lottery money goes. That needs to be clarified. I am not clear on it. Where does the national lottery money go?
