The organisation referred to by the Deputy has been allocated a total of €500,000 under various rounds of the Sports Capital Programme. I understand that only the most recent grant of €44,000, from the 2015 round of the programme is still outstanding. The organisation were given formal approval for this grant in June 2018 and were informed that they could proceed with the project. There will be no undue delay in paying out the grant once the standard necessary documentation is submitted to my Department by the organisation.
