Ms Avalon Everett:

Yes. The levy will be directly invested back into the programme. That is the key principle here. It will be applied equally to all athletes from youth right through to five-star athletes. It will not exclude any athletes in terms of ranking or any profile. It will be applied fairly and proportionately. As Mr. Duggan has said, it is really to solve the irregular and the probably inconsistent level of funding we were getting from our affiliate partners. Sport Ireland had indicated to us that we had to find a model that worked given the fact we have Los Angeles in 2028 and in 2032 we will have Brisbane, which is quite a distance away. We will be flying horses halfway across the world. We need to ensure that the programme is sustainable, in particular to meet our objectives of podium finishes, especially in LA, across our disciplines.
