The majority of CLÁR measures were closed to applications in 2008. While some measures accepted applications in 2009 and 2010, all were subsequently closed to new funding requests.

All of the remaining commitments under the CLÁR Programme relate to already approved Sports Capital projects. The lead Department for these projects and the source of the majority of funding for the sports clubs and community groups involved is the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport.

In the years 2002-2012, some €137m was expended under the CLÁR Programme and provision was made for €0.3m for this year to meet existing commitments.

The information requested in Question No. 75 of 6 December 2012 was not available in the format requested at that time. It has since been compiled by my Department and the table below details the breakdown on a county basis for the period 2002 to 2012.
