Under the Sports Capital Programme, which is administered by my Department, funding is allocated towards the provision of sports facilities at national, regional and local level. The Guidelines, Terms and Condition of the Programme specify that only projects with a clear sporting aspect are considered for funding. I understand that funding is made available to the Scouting Ireland by my colleague the Minister for Education and Science.
