Robert Troy: I thank the Chairman.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: I put it to the Minister that they have been in situ. These are the people who have not overseen adequate corporate governance for the last years. These are the people who have overseen the procedures that brought the Minister to the committee today, the FAI to the committee last week and Sport Ireland to the committee the week before. Does the Minister have confidence that these people...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: Okay. There seems to be a resistance or reservations about conducting a full, independent audit. Sport Ireland seems to be relying on Mazars and Grant Thornton. Given that Mr. Mulvey said he has had a cursory look at the terms and conditions for the Mazars piece of work how can Sport Ireland be satisfied that the terms and conditions will adequately address the wide ranging issues that...

Robert Troy: Exactly. Yes.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: The current situation is as follows: an improper financial transaction has not been reported; there has been non-adherence to a basic level of corporate governance; substantial matters are being considered by the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement; there is a continual refusal by the existing board to answer basic questions; and the FAI auditors have filed a notice to the...

Robert Troy: When will it commence?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: The last time Mr. Mulvey was before the committee I asked if the board of Sport Ireland was made aware at any time of potential irregularities within the FAI. Mr. Mulvey said that it was not and that he was unaware. This is despite the fact that there was a well-publicised case in the High Court with a member of the Sport Ireland board that came about - I understand - because of concerns...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: It was alluded to that Mr. Delaney was on "gardening leave". As one would expect, he is still in receipt of pay. We know that Sport Ireland has suspended funding to the FAI. It has been reported that the FAI has debts in the region of €28 million on the Aviva and that currently there are three separate consultants' reports under way, all of which are being paid for by the FAI. Is...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: Sport Ireland met the board of the FAI last night and that board again withheld key information, as confirmed by the delegates to my colleagues on a number of occasions. That is an indication that the FAI continues to give the two fingers to Sport Ireland and that it is the FAI that is driving the agenda and setting the pace. Even today, at the eleventh hour, it wrote to the Minister for...
