Dundalk Athletics Track was approved for grant funding under the 2017 and 2020 rounds of the Sports Capital and Equipment Programme. In relation to the grant approved under the 2017 programme, legal formalities have been completed and payment requests are being processed. In relation to the grant provisionally approved under the 2020 programme no further legal formalities are required and the documentation necessary to receive formal approval is awaited from the grant recipient. Any organisation seeking information regarding a grant under the Sports Capital and Equipment Programme can contact the Sports Capital Division of my Department via email, at sportscapitalprogrammes@tcagsm.gov.ie.
