Sport Ireland, which is funded by my Department, is the statutory body with responsibility for the development of sport. As part of its role relating to activities in the outdoors, Sport Ireland maintains the National Trails Register and promotes awareness and useage of recreational trails.

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