Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Report into Ticketing at Rio Olympic Games: Discussion (Resumed)
9:00 am
Ms Sarah Keane:
The Minister heard at the same time as everybody else when I referenced it on Monday. I referenced it at that point with a view to being as transparent as possible. Our board has not had an opportunity to discuss those agreements because we have only recently received them and we are still getting legal advice. I was a little bit uncomfortable referencing it at that point for that reason, but we felt that in our efforts to be as transparent as possible that it was right to do that. However, we need to get that legal advice and investigate what the situation is in terms of the validity of the contracts and discuss that as a board. We will then consider what we can come out and say around it.
