FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding
9:30 am
Mr. Shane Califf:
I clarified earlier that when we said that no debts were to be covered, it meant that a body could not apply for pre-existing debts if it did not have corresponding net losses as a result of Covid-19. I wish to make that very clear. With regard to the sub-committees, we recommended that governing bodies set up sub-committees for the distribution of the funds to their clubs. KOSI would have audited multiple governing bodies, including the FAI, and come back to say that the governing bodies, including, the FAI, adhered to the terms and conditions of the scheme. It is about not misunderstanding the application process versus the expenditure.
