Jennifer Murnane O'Connor (FF), Carlow-Kilkenny

I thank the Minister of State for the sports capital grant in Carlow, and particularly for St. Leo's College. The Minister of State gave his commitment to women in sport and they got their full grant of €300,000.
On the appeals process, I have written to the Department. There are three clubs in Carlow that had originally been requested to provide further information and they did not get the grant. Will the Minister of State contact them or do they have to contact the Department? Communication is key here to ensure they get the grant now with the appeals process. I welcome the €6 million that is there, but I would be grateful if the Minister of State could contact the clubs and let them know about the appeals process.
