Ms Olive McGovern:

Overall, the world of sport is a space, particularly for transgender young people but overall for the LGBTI community, in which there is still a need for significant development. We have not yet received an update from Sport Ireland but I expect that it will be open to making some progress in this area. The full implementation report will provide us with the detail of what it has done and what it is planning to do. Sport Ireland was a very willing participant on the oversight committee and it contributed significantly. In regard to the capacity building measures, a number of small-scale sports organisations were applicants. It was very enlightening to learn that at community level, sports organisations such as boxing clubs, football clubs, are doing small-scale reflective pieces within their organisations that at a community base could make their environments more inclusive of LGBTI young people.
