I propose to take Questions Nos. 516 to 518, inclusive, together.

Details of allocations made by my Department under the Sports Capital Programme and details of all  allocations for other approved sports capital projects are published on the Department's website www.dttas.ie.

In relation to allocations which have yet to be drawn down, the table below sets out the total value of allocations made by the year in question which are yet to be drawn down.

In relation to grant withdrawals, the table below shows the number and value of grants that have either been fully or partially withdrawn in each of the last 10 years.  Details of the grantee, grant purpose and reason for withdrawal is not readily available. To obtain this information would require a review of each  relevant file requiring significant time and resources. It is not proposed to prioritise such an exercise at this time.
