Grants for operating costs of provincial sports federations and bodies

It is a contribution for the annual running costs of the provincial committees and delegations of the sports federations, sports promotion bodies and associated sports disciplines; for the direct organisation of sports events; for technical-organisational consultancy activities in favour of affiliated sports associations and clubs; for the performance, also through affiliated sports clubs, of specialised competitive activities.

The contribution is granted to the extent of 70% of the eligible expenditure and within the following limits
- amount made up of a fixed share (€7,000 for committees, €5,000 for sports bodies, €4,000 for delegations) + a share based on the number of affiliated sports associations and clubs (€100 for each affiliate) + a share based on the amount of eligible expenditure (3%)
- deficit as shown in the final balance sheet, less any contribution received the previous year if booked to the budget in question;

If the available resources are less than the sum of the grantable contributions, these are reduced by an equal percentage for all beneficiaries.
