AIRE Members received the amount of €65,000 in respect of the Energy Grant in June 2023.
Applications were invited from Approved AIRE Riding Centres in November 2022; members were asked to submit details of Energy payments in 2021 & 2022 together with copy invoices to H.S.I.
The award payable was subject to providing vouching documentation (Electric Ireland/energy bills) evidencing the amounts claimed for.
Horse Sport Ireland contacted many centres individually regarding the application assisting with the process, subsequently the amount of €65,000 was paid out. An unclaimed amount of circa €42,000 was returned to Sport Ireland. Several members made an initial application however for various reasons did not follow through. Members were given every chance by H.S.I. to submit paperwork.
