Sport and Recreational Development
Dail Éireann — 2022-11-17

Alan Dillon (FG), Mayo

I appreciate the response of the Minister of State. Certainly in my constituency, more than 99 sporting organisations and schools benefited from the fund. In total €4.8 million was allocated through the sports capital programme. More than €470,000 was allocated through the sports equipment programme. This is a significant contribution to sport. Given the record number of applications I commend the Department on the information, presentation and support they give to applicants who are not familiar with the process in respect of doing the paperwork and forwarding the required quotations. I look forward to the programme opening in 2023. It is very important and I thank the Minister of State for his response.
