Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Covid-19: Impact on Sport in Ireland

Mr. John Kelly:

I will come in on the smaller sports. We have engagement with them, as does Sport Ireland, and the €70 million is open to all sports. The Minister had a Covid sports monitoring group, which opened to a wide range of NGBs.

We will have a meeting again next week and we met them recently as part of the roadmap consultation.

As for dance and exercise classes, following public health advice, under level 2 at least, pods of six are allowed and that is how they can proceed.

On EU funding, I might ask Mr. Hogan to comment.
