The organisation referred to by the Deputy applied for a grant under the 2014 Sports Capital Programme. When the 2014 Programme was advertised my Department issued a guide to filling out the application form which clearly set out the Department's minimum requirements that applicants had to meet to be considered for funding.  

An email setting out the outcome of the assessment of the club's application will be sent to all unsuccessful applicants in the coming days.  If an organisation requires any more information or clarification they should contact the Sports Capital Programme Unit of the Department in Killarney.  I believe that applicants have a right to receive this information first.  

The 2014 Sports Capital Programme is now closed and all the monies under this round have been allocated.
