Brandywell Stadium To ask the Minister of Culture, Arts and Leisure, in light of recent budget cuts announcement within her Department, whether the planned redevelopment work at the Brandywell Stadium will proceed. I am aware of plans to redevelop the Brandywell Stadium. No formal funding application has been received by my Department. I intend to submit a bid to the Executive to secure funding in the next CSR for a Sub Regional Stadium Programme. The Executive previously endorsed the development of sub-regional stadia as a priority area of spend in the next CSR period beginning 2015-16. A sub-regional stadia programme is a logical channel for any potential funding application as the Brandywell would be one of a number of eligible venues across the north of Ireland. My Department is currently preparing a Strategic Outline Case for submission to the Executive to support the case for funding. No decision has been taken on specific stadia that will benefit from this funding.
