Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media
Inclusion in Sport: Discussion
Micheál Carrigy (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
Ms O'Connor mentioned a project in Badminton Ireland. For the past 18 months I have chaired the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Autism. In the report we issued, one of our main concerns was the lack of awareness in society in general and not only in sport. Is the badminton project something Ms O'Connor would like to see expanded to other codes in the Federation of Irish Sport? It makes things an awful lot easier for those on the autism spectrum when people understand it.
