Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media
Elimination of Abuse Towards Referees, Officials and Players in Sport: Discussion
Mr. Tom Ryan:
I thank Deputy Andrews for his comments and I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment of them. I want to point out that we have provision in our official guide for expulsion from the association. In terms of punishing a club, there is a possibility for games to be forfeited and so on but we do not have a suspension mechanism for clubs. We will be happy to take that and other ideas emanating from the committee today on board.
