​Sport Ireland, which is funded by my Department, is the statutory body with responsibility for the promotion, development and co-ordination of sport. This includes responsibility for the allocation of current expenditure funding to National Governing Bodies of Sport. I have referred the Deputy's Question to Sport Ireland for direct reply in relation to funding provided to Athletics Ireland under Sport Ireland's funding programmes. I would ask the Deputy to inform my office if a reply is not received within 10 days. Additionally, details of all Sports Capital allocations made under my Department's Sports Capital Programme are available on the Department's website.  No new allocations have been made so far in 2016.
