The Irish Sports Council, which is funded by my Department, is the statutory body with responsibility for the promotion, development and coordination of sport, including the allocation of funding for the National Governing Bodies of Sport and for the High Performance programme.
As the Deputy's question relates to the allocation of funding, I have referred it to the Irish Sports Council for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to inform my office if a reply is not received within 10 days.
