The IABA went on in that statement to state the following:

This, we believe is yet another clear example of Sport Ireland’s officials seeking to go beyond their authority and its statutory mandate and act Ultra Vires their statutory power or remit. The agency has a track record and form in this regard and has paid dearly for it in the past.

Why did the IABA think it necessary to include that statement? To clarify, whose language is this? Who wrote the statement? Was it the chief executive or the chairman and was it approved by the board? Was it written by Mr. Kirwin as the legal adviser?
