As the Deputy will be aware, my Department operates a number of grant schemes and programmes and some funding may be available to assist groups to develop the Gordon Bennett Car Rally theme. Details of all the programmes and schemes operated by my Department, including eligibility criteria can be accessed on the Department's website at www.pobail.ie

It should be noted, however, that each of the schemes and programmes operated by my Department are governed by rules and regulations, which projects must meet in order to qualify for funding.
