Like most people here, I am a football fan. Nobody here is trying to comment on any individual situation, but we are faced with requests. The FAI have come in here and made presentations to us about the future funding for academies, for example. We all want to support that. Will the Minister of State elaborate on the status of the specific request to fund those academies? Has that progressed and has anything major made it to his table yet?
