I thank the Minister for his answers and welcome the impending and long, long overdue opening
00:05
of the Northern Ireland Football Fund. In the terms and conditions, Minister, it refers
00:11
to the fact that match funding of 5% will be expected from successful clubs. However,
00:16
in the case of there being a publicly owned ground, that will increase to 40%. Given recent
00:23
investment of somewhere in the region of £2 million by Derry City Football Club in the
00:28
Brandywale north stand, construction is still ongoing. Will the Minister give favourable
00:34
consideration to including that as an example of match funding from a club?
00:41
I hope the Member will read all of the documentation that has been put out. Certainly, for those
00:46
who have invested in the past, that does contribute towards higher points within the matrix. That
00:53
is not just through this process but includes past investment as well. It is important
00:59
that those who have invested in their facilities and have been willing to put money in already
01:04
will benefit from that. I encourage the Member to read all of the documentation. When you
01:08
look at the scoring matrix that we have put in place, it is very fair. That has been the
01:13
response from most clubs so far.
