A MASTERPLAN for the future of Irish sport was unveiled today by Taoiseach Micheál Martin which will see the phased development of “world class facilities” at Sports Campus Ireland.
However, no overall figure was detailed by Sport Ireland or the Department of Sport for the project, which will take up to 20 years to complete – the first phase will cost up to €60m.
