-----in order to give the Minister and Sport Ireland the powers they need to ensure corporate accountability.

It is clear from what we have seen today that they do not have it and that without it we are back to square one. Will the Minister consider bringing forward legislation to give Sport Ireland the power to state it will withhold funding until such time as the board steps down and also that it is deemed to be in breach of the Companies Act? That is what we need and what everybody wants to see.
