The club referred to by the Deputy applied for a grant under the 2012 Sports Capital Programme.
A total of 2,170 applications were received under the Programme. The applications received sought €229m in funding for projects with a total value of €374m.
Given the level of demand for funding and the amount of funding available under the programme, it is unfortunately not possible to allocate grants to every eligible applicant. The current position is that all funding sanctioned by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform for the 2012 Sport Capital Programme has now been allocated and there is no more funding available at this time.
No decision has been made on the timing of the next round of the Programme.
