Mr. Shane Califf:

As Dr. May said, the primary focus of the scheme was to support losses in income or costs incurred as a result of Covid-19. We acknowledged that the larger-scale governing bodies and the larger-scale sporting organisations which generate the majority of their own commercial income and are less reliant on Exchequer funding would need the greatest support.
