I propose to take Questions Nos. 27 and 72 together.

I recently announced that the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport will be advertising two new rounds of the Sports Capital Programme between now and 2016.

Officials in my Department are currently making the necessary arrangements with a view to launching a new round of the Sports Capital Programme in early 2012.
