Under the 2012 Sports Capital Programme, over 2,350 applications for funding were received.  This is the largest number of applications ever received under the Programme. Departmental officials are processing the applications and this process will take some time due to the volume of applications received.  I  expect to be in a position to announce the successful applicants later this year.
