Does Sport Ireland look across the spectrum? Very recently we had an example where there was a stay on some of the funding for the FAI. The funding in question was retained by the Department. I am sorry to keep going on about the FAI but it is such a good example of where failure can happen. At the same time, funding was being allocated for UL, but perhaps I am wrong about this and am using the wrong example here. I am not using the right example here. Does Sport Ireland look across the funding streams?
