Mr. Liam McGroarty:

I thank the Chair for the invitation. That would be a fantastic thing to do. We have already met with the Department and the Minister of State, Deputy Chambers. There is definitely a positive response from the Department. It needs to look at it because it is very new and so on. It would be great to have further conversation with them.

What this committee did today was brilliant. It raised awareness across all the different parties by inviting us to speak about something that is quite new. Getting that broad Government political affirmation and positivity towards something new in itself is huge. It is probable that having multiple Ministries involved in it, such as the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, would be good. It is great to see that there is cross-departmental support for it because SOCs are more successful when they are intersectoral. If it is just the Minister for sport, that is not enough. Championing the idea from a cross-governmental, cross-party perspective would be a brilliant contribution.
