​I can confirm that an application has been submitted by the organisation referred to by the Deputy under the 2015 Sports Capital Programme and the Deputy's support for the project is noted.

I expect to announce allocations later this year.

The organisation referred to by the Deputy applied for a grant under the 2014 Sports Capital Programme. All applicants were informed of the outcome of the assessment of their application, including details of why applications were deemed to be invalid.  In this instance the club was emailed on the 19 July 2014 with the exact details of the documentation that was missing from their application.  The email was very clear in this regard. If the club requires any further information, the designated club contact should email or telephone the Department.
