Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport

Safeguarding Policies and Procedures within the Football Association of Ireland: Discussion

2:00 am

Ms Aoife Rafferty:

I think they are probably referring to the anonymity with RSM, which is an investigation service. When we moved through the different stages of raising a concern into a formal investigation and as part of that formal investigation there is a challenge around anonymity because of fair due process. Everyone has to be afforded the opportunity to respond to any issues that are raised against them. That is a significant challenge for anyone involved in a formal investigation, because it involves specifics.
