Sport Ireland, which is funded by my Department, is the statutory body with responsibility for the development of sport, increasing participation at all levels and raising standards. This remit includes the implementation of measures to address issues such as the disability participation gradient that is referenced in Action 12 of the National Sports Policy 2018-2027.

As this is a matter for Sport Ireland, I have referred the Deputy's question to the agency for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to inform my office if a reply is not received within 10 working days.
