Mr. John Horan:

At the very beginning, to get the return to play right in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, we set up our own Covid-19 advisory committee in early May. Subsequently, a Government expert group was set up. We have representation on that group and that is how our views and the cases we make are communicated.

We had open and ongoing engagement with the Minister with responsibility for sport, Deputy Catherine Martin, and the officials in her Department. They have been very receptive to whatever ideas and proposals we have put forward. We are very happy that our proposals are being given good consideration and have been taken on board, in some cases.
