Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
Proposed Merger: Irish Sports Council and National Sports Campus Development Authority
10:00 am
Mr. John Treacy:
No one will notice the impact on the ground. There will be none. It is a question of administration more than anything else. After the two organisations are combined, we will get on with our business. There has always been good synergy between the campus and ourselves and we work closely together. There is no issue whatsoever and no one on the ground will notice the merger at national level. It will be business as usual, only streamlined.
The issue of corporate governance is our reason for organisation capacity building with the governing bodies of sport. One must work on it constantly. When we discuss politics in sport, it is with a small "P".
