Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Governance Review Group Report for the FAI Board and Sport Ireland: Sport Ireland

Mr. Aidan Horan:

No, they provided us with information that they thought would be helpful to the review. We gave them an overview of the terms of reference and the background we were using, we talked about the codes and the guidance and we looked at their statutes and the regulations. They were very happy to take on board our independent recommendations as to what the future should be. That is the context within which we worked with them. We got back comments on the draft report from both Sport Ireland and the FAI, both reflecting generally broad acceptance of the draft report, which ultimately became the final report issued on 21 June. This is very much based on UEFA and FIFA regulations, principles and practices, but they took no excess influence on us regarding any of the material here.
