Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion

Mr. John Treacy:

We certainly will be. As we said earlier, we are going to audit 14 sporting organisations next year. We will continue to do that. We have increased the number of audits we carry out over recent years. We will do a thorough job. We are doing a lot of training on corporate governance with the national governing bodies as well. By and large, when we carry out audits - and we have lots of experience in this - we do not find a great number of significant issues. If we find significant issues, we sit down with that organisation over the course of a year to ensure that such issues are addressed. The national governing body has to verify that with us. That process has been in place for quite some time.
