Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media
Future of Sports Broadcasting: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Declan McBennett:
I beg the Deputy's indulgence. This is really important. RTÉ can request games. However, as indicated, by Tom Ryan earlier, the people who set the games are the central competitions control committee, CCCC. RTÉ requested the two games. The two games we requested were Dublin-Mayo and Kerry-Tyrone. Kerry-Tyrone was fixed for the Saturday by the CCCC, an independent body, and, therefore, was broadcast on GAAGO. We had requested Kerry-Tyrone.
