Sports Funding
Dail Éireann — 2024-05-30
============================================================

David Stanton (FG), Cork East

I am taking this question on behalf of Deputy Bruton, who sends his apologies. First, I congratulate the Minister of State, Deputy Thomas Byrne, on achieving what seems to be a lot more funding this year for this very important programme.
I also want to comment on the staff from the office, who were extraordinarily helpful. The feedback is very good from people who have made applications. The question is about what changes might be made to the criteria for the next round. Is the Minister looking at any possible changes to the criteria?
