134 Mr. Penrose asked the Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation if he will ensure that an application from a sporting organisation (details supplied) in County Westmeath for substantial capital funding is considered; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8435/01]
The sports capital programme for 2001 was advertised in mid December 2000 with a closing date of 9 February 2001 for the receipt of completed applications. In excess of 1,450 applications were received including one from the organisation in question. All applications will be evaluated against the programme's assessment criteria, which are outlined in the guidelines which accompanied the application form. I intend to announce the grant allocations for the programme as soon as possible after the assessment process has been completed.
