Mr. Tom Ryan:

The GAA, in collaboration and consultation with the Department and Sport Ireland, will look to oversee that process on behalf of GAA clubs and seek to co-ordinate an application process for them.

In terms of the scale, it is very welcome and will make a huge difference but it does not address everything. As the months ahead of us are still very uncertain due to the pandemic we may need to supplement it with further assistance. It will play an important role in securing our future and that of the clubs over the next few months, and we will administer it on the part of clubs.
