I thank Mr. Mulvey. In his statement, Mr. Walsh indicated that the new fixed-term contract gave him very few legal protections and prevented him from having any contact with the Irish Sports Council or the Olympic Council of Ireland. He further indicated that he was also prevented from having contact with the Irish Sports Council or the Olympic Council of Ireland without written permission of the CEO and that this stipulation also related to any contact with the media. Is this a normal relationship for a sports organisation to have with a person of Mr. Walsh's stature?
