Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Challenges facing the Horse Sport Industry: Discussion

Mr. Ronan Corrigan:

I suppose I can speak for showjumping, from its perspective. Showjumping carried out a full governance review over a two-year period overseen by Crowleys and have implemented almost all of the recommendations relating to corporate governance. We signed up to the Sport Ireland code of governance. We were acknowledged as a type C organisation. We are on the second year of the on-a-journey element of that. I would be satisfied to say that Showjumping Ireland in its current guise is very well governed, within its corporate requirements and its sport requirements.
