Question:
To ask the Minister for Communities, given his attendance at the launch in February 2025, to detail the role his Department currently has in the development of the Irish Football Association's proposed National Training Centre.

Answer:

The Northern Ireland Football Fund includes a commitment to work with the Irish FA on the development of a National Training Centre.

My Department received an Outline Business Case (OBC) from the Irish FA on 7 February detailing the key benefits that will be realised through the

development of this project.

My officials will continue to engage with the Irish FA whilst considering the proposals in the Outline Business Case (OBC).
