Since I was appointed as Minister of State with responsibility for sport and physical education, I have met with a large number of sporting organisations and clubs.

The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the table below.

The below list, is reflective of pre scheduled meetings. Other meetings have happened in the course of my work as a constituency T.D.

For completeness of reply, I can inform the Deputy that a copy of Minister Catherine Martin's diary is available on the Department's website and details of any meetings she held with sporting organisations are available there.
