With regard to the Sports Capital Programme, Minister of State Brendan Griffin and I receive numerous contacts from applicants, and Government and opposition elected representatives in relation to proposed projects. During the period referred to by the Deputy, I received one written representation from an independent senator. This was from Senator Billy Lawless and concerned a sports club in Galway. I understand that no written representations from Independent Senators were received by Minister Griffin in this period.

Since January 2017 and to date in 2018, I received 16 representations from members of the public in relation to matters directly related to Sport Ireland, the statutory body which replaced the Irish Sports Council in 2015. These representations include matters relating to the operation of the National Sports Campus and events hosted at the National Indoor Arena.
If the Deputy requires further information regarding representations on any specific matter relating to Sport Ireland, he might contact my office and I will provide the information direct to the Deputy.
