Responsibility for the funding of the 16 local sports partnerships in operation around the country rests with the Irish Sports Council, the statutory body responsible for the promotion and development of sport in Ireland.

As my Department does not have a role in the ongoing operation of these 16 partnerships, I have referred the Deputy's inquiry to the Sports Council for attention.
