Question 407: To ask the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism if he will confirm the receipt of a grant application under the 2006 sport capital programme from a club (details supplied) in Dublin 6 for less than €23,000; when a decision will be available; if his attention has been drawn to the widespread community support that the tennis club enjoys and the contribution that it makes to the local community; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that granting the application will have a beneficial effect on the operational performance of the club; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The national lottery-funded sports capital programme, which is administered by my Department, allocates funding to sporting and community organisations at local, regional and national level throughout the country. The programme is advertised annually.
Applications for funding under the 2006 programme were invited through advertisements in the press on 27 and 28 November last. The closing date for receipt of applications was 20 January 2006. All applications received before the deadline, including one from the organisation in question, are currently being evaluated against the programme's assessment criteria, which are outlined in the guidelines, terms and conditions of the programme. I intend to announce the grant allocations for the programme as soon as possible after the assessment process has been completed.
