I thank Mr. Browne and note that the committee plans to have a meeting in late March to address specifically the 2023 Ruby World Cup bid. Hopefully, we will be able to explore how the committee and the Government can assist in any way on that. I thank the FAI for facilitating the committee by rescheduling an event in honour of the late Milo Corcoran, which is taking place this afternoon having been due to take place around now or earlier. Mr. Delaney has to leave early, however, and as such, I ask that in the first round of questions any that are specifically related to the FAI be directed to Mr. Delaney. There will then be an opportunity for members to direct questions to the GAA or IRFU. For the first round of questions, we will take Deputies Peter Fitzpatrick, Kevin O'Keeffe and Imelda Munster, in that order.
