1717. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport further to Parliamentary Question Nos. 542 and 543 of June 2016, if pay as you go public hire, as envisaged by Horse Sport Ireland in its proposal for the development of a dedicated training facility at the Abbotstown campus site, was understood to include weekly commercial jumping shows when this proposal was agreed to; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

​Sport Ireland, which is funded by my Department, is the statutory body with responsibility for the development and operation of the National Sports Campus at Abbotstown. This includes responsibility for the operation of facilities such as the National Horse Sport Arena.

As this question is a matter for Sport Ireland, I have referred it to Sport Ireland for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to inform my office if a reply is not received within 10 days.
