    We wish to make an enquiry, under the freedom of information act, regarding an application for Sports Capital Funding made in 2015/2016 by Scoil Chonglais, KWETB, Baltinglass, Co Wicklow for all weather pitch on site in the school grounds, Parkmore, Baltinglass, Co Wicklow At the time we were approached by the school and subsequently supplied the school with a letter of support to state we would use such a facility if it was available locally, as I believe other community clubs did. The school received funding of ~ 97k for their facility. We hired the facility from the school last season for our club and paid an hourly rate, however, this year we have been excluded from using the facility and one local club have been given exclusive use of the facility. We wish to enquire if our letter of support was used with that application and would like a copy of the terms and conditions of the funding being granted.
