Mary Upton (Dublin South Central, Labour)

I ask the Minister to knock heads together. Is there some way to bring these two organisations together so they can co-operate? We would not then have this totally unnecessary duplication. Each organisation engaged a highly reputable consultant but, reading the two reports produced, one would think they were about two different sets of games as there was much discrepancy between them. We are talking about the spending of public money on internal sports politics. The Minister will agree with me that this House is the place for politics and out there is the place for sport. Can the Minister knock their heads together?
