The Deputy will appreciate that given the large volume of applications received and the complexity of processing and evaluating the information required, it is not possible at this early stage to provide an exact number of applications received or the level of grant aid sought by applicants from County Roscommon.

Under the Sports Capital Programme, which is administered by my Department, funding is allocated to sporting and community organisations at local, regional and national level throughout the country. The 2008 programme was advertised on 13th and 14th of January and the deadline for receipt of applications was 29th February for paper-based applications and 7th March for on-line applications. Accordingly, applications for this year's Programme are no longer being received as the deadline has passed. All applications received under the 2008 Programme will be assessed in accordance with the assessment criteria outlined in the Guidelines, terms and conditions of the Programme and allocations will be made when that process has been finalised.
If the organisation in question has not applied under the current round, it is open to them, should they have a project which satisfies the Terms and Conditions of the Programme, to submit an application for the next round of the Programme. I should point out to the Deputy that applications must be sporting in content to qualify for funding under the Programme.
