The 2017 round of the Sports Capital Programme closed for applications on the 24th February and I can confirm that a relevant application has been submitted. By the closing date, a record number of 2,320 applications seeking €155 million in grants were received. Accordingly, the allocation of grants will be particularly challenging.
All of the 2,320 applications received are currently being assessed by officials in my Department. I expect to be in a position to make an announcement regarding allocations in the coming weeks.
