I was delighted to be able to launch the 2014 round of the Sports Capital Programme earlier this year. €40 million is available for allocation.
The 2,036 applications received under the 2014 Sports Capital Programme are currently being assessed by officials in my Department. Every application will be assessed by one official and reviewed by another. Given the number of applications received and the detail contained therein, this process takes a number of months to complete. I hope to announce allocations in the next number of weeks.
