I welcome everybody.

I am going to be quick. Where a “Yes” or “No” answer applies, will the witnesses opt for it as opposed to talking down the clock?

For all of us it is unacceptable what happened. All the witnesses have read the KOSI report. We have not. We are questioning in a vacuum as a result. The witnesses’ legal advice is exclusive to them, meaning we do not get to say whether they are right or wrong. The Minister, the Department and Sport Ireland regularly refer to KOSI. This is a difficult position for us to be in and it is not acceptable.

When was the last time the board of Sport Ireland met the FAI?
