I agree with Senator Cassells's critique of the response of the IRFU. It was absolutely dismissive in tone and did not help the situation. In his briefing document, the Minister of State outlined that 45 NGBs would receive funding as part of the investment in women's sport. Is it possible to get a breakdown of this list to see where the money went and how much went to each NGB? Does he think State-funded media like RTÉ have an obligation to promote women's sport more? Could he stipulate that in order to receive State funding, it must promote women's sports more? He outlined that additional funding of €1.7 million has been provided this year to increase the grant funding for female Gaelic games players. Could he provide a breakdown of this funding?
