I propose to take Questions Nos. 96 and 97 together.

Sport Ireland has commenced work on the development of a National Database of Sport & Recreation Amenities. This GIS-based database encompasses considerably more datasets than was originally envisaged in an audit of sports facilities and is expected to be substantially completed within two years. As part of this work, Sport Ireland is examining a proposal to include the location of defibrillators in the database.

I have referred the Deputy's question to Sport Ireland for further information on this project and for direct reply to the Deputy. Please contact my office if a reply is not received within 10 working days.
