In regard to governance and oversight of governance, each of the witnesses said that it is a lot easier when there is buy-in from the governing body. The good example of that that we have seen in recent years is the Olympic Federation of Ireland. There was a lot wrong within that organisation until Sport Ireland cleaned it out. Would the witnesses agree that it is now working extremely well and would it be a good model for other governing bodies that are difficulties?
