Under the Sports Capital Programme, which is administered by my Department, grants are allocated to sporting and community organisations at local, regional and national level throughout the country towards the development of facilities. The organisation in question has received sports capital funding in the amount of €1.179 million from 1998 to date under the Sports Capital Programme operated by my Department.

The date of the next round of the Programme had not yet been decided. As in previous years, advertisements announcing the next round of the Programme will be placed in the national press and application forms will be available at that stage. It is open to the organisation in question to submit an application if they have a project which meets the terms and conditions of the programme.
