Governance and Related Issues in Cycling Ireland: Discussion

Dr. Una May:

I will answer for Sport Ireland. The suggestion that we would communicate that is quite reasonable. We have quite a number of NGBs which are all-Ireland or 32-county bodies. It is appropriate that we would communicate with them. We do not have any reason to believe there is an issue there but we would be quite happy to send out a reminder that if there was a similar situation in any NGB that we could address that. That would be perfectly appropriate. It is a good point.

We are very close to submitting a planning application for the velodrome. It will be at the end of this month. That would allow us to commence construction in 2023 with a completion date in the latter part of 2024. We are excited to see the progress on that.
