How much did they get this year?

[A face]

The GAA, how much did they get in grants this year from the taxpayer? Does it go from Jan 1st to Dec 31st that you'd count it? While we are at it, how much did the athletics, horses, greyhounds, golf all get?

It would be good to try and compile the figures for comparison. Where is the best place to get these figures?

Here, try this (http://193.178.1.186/grants_funding/2006_sportgrants.html). I'll talk to you when you calm down. It's unbelievable. I didn't go through each County, just a few. Maybe if everyone did their own County for your comparitive purposes?

Kildares
Allocated 1,406,500

GAA 715,000 (50.84%)
Soccer 250,000 (one club, Maynooth Town) (17.77%)
Other 441,500.(31.39%)

Was this not done in another thread somewhere? Can't find it if it was.
