The concern I have regarding the sports capital programme is that, as Senator Warfield was saying about the Dublin Devils FC, if the resources or the professionalism is not there within clubs, or a club does not own its own ground, it is at a big disadvantage. That may not be a matter for today but it is a gap in the sports capital programme and is something that needs to be addressed.
Deputy O'Sullivan mentioned Sport Ireland not being the regulator of sports. Where issues such as those with the gymnasts and Gymnastics Ireland occur, who is the regular? Who ensures there are consequences when events like that occur?
