600. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport in view of the fact that a total of €75 million remains outstanding from previous rounds of the sports capital programme and from special allocations, if he will provide, in tabular form, the amount outstanding for applications from each local authority area; and the contact or discussions he has had with each local authority on the matter.

The funding outstanding from previous rounds of the Sports Capital Programme, on a county by county basis, will be provided to the Deputy under separate cover. Information of this type is retained on a county basis, and not in the manner sought by the Deputy. I wrote to all Local Authorities last year seeking an update on the status of their projects and reminding them of the need to draw down grants as soon as possible. However, this correspondence only related to allocations where the local authorities were the actual grantees.
