I wish to make a point. In his opening statement, the Minister said that the OCI has not yet signed the governance code for community and voluntary organisations. He also said that of all the bodies that have been asked to sign it since 2013, only 11 have done so to date and that a further 42 have yet to sign. In fairness to Deputy Munster, that goes to the heart of her questioning of the Minister. It is about the governance and the failure on the part of all of these organisations, including the OCI, to sign up to the code. Notwithstanding what the Minister has been saying, there is still a huge gap in terms of credibility regarding the governance of our sports right across the board.
