Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Sport in Ireland - Challenges, Strategies and Governance: Sport Ireland and the Federation of Irish Sport

9:00 am

Mr. John Treacy:

In the vast majority of governing bodies that we fund, for which the figure is over 50%, the salaries paid are fine. I do not think there is an issue in that regard. The Chairman is talking about national governing bodies of sport that have very substantial commercial income, but at the same time they are independent bodies. We do not fund them at a level that might allow us to have that influence.
