At present my Department has no specific scheme for the funding of defibrillators for sporting bodies. However, for completeness I should mention that groups, including local sporting organisations, may be eligible for funding towards the cost of defibrillators under my Department's programme of Grants for Locally Based Community and Voluntary Organisations, the RAPID programme or the CLÁR Programme. Detailed information in respect of these programmes can be found on my Department's website at www.pobail.ie
