I cannot answer this question on behalf of the Taoiseach. I attended the GAA congress dinner in April but did not attend the congress itself. For that reason I cannot elaborate further.

A degree of confusion may have arisen in respect of this question. I understand it was originally put to the Taoiseach before being transferred to the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport. I am happy to withdraw it on the basis that the Minister may not have received the information necessary to respond.

The question relates to an issue raised with the Taoiseach during the course of a debate in this House but his Office referred it to the Minister's Department.
