I want to ask Dr. May about the targeted funding related to Covid, the aim of which was to make sure that none of the organisations became insolvent. Obviously sport was incredibly important at that time, particularly at grassroots level. Was it intended that those funds would be used to keep the grassroots elements going? It seems extraordinary that there was a huge reduction in debt rather than making sure the FAI did not become insolvent. I completely understand that the FAI needs an awful lot more money but were other organisations in the same position whereby they could reduce their debt on foot of funding that was specifically related to Covid?
