I thank the witnesses for the document. The participation of older people was mentioned earlier. I wish to pay tribute to one man, namely, David Brady from Mayo, who did a lot of work during Covid in reaching out to members of the elderly community. There is a glaring omission in this booklet when it comes to older people in respect of the Dads & Lads part of the GAA. A national tournament was held two weeks ago in Abbotstown. There was a glaring omission in that book of a man from Navan O’Mahonys playing in the Dads & Lads. Anyway, we will let that go.
