The Sports Capital and Equipment Programme is the Government's primary vehicle for supporting new and upgraded sports facilities and equipment across the country. The 2023 round of the Programme attracted a record number of applications and in May, I was delighted to announce the first round of grants of €26 million for equipment-only projects.

The assessment of funding applications for capital projects, including the project referred to by the Deputy, is now at an advanced stage and I expect to announce Programme allocations soon.
