Robert Troy: Can I ask a question that has previously been asked? To what exact bill did the €100,000 relate? Mr. Delaney's opening statement referred to "all cheques and FAI bank transfers" which would indicate a multiple liability. In response to Deputy Rock, Mr. Conway said he had previously been in negotiations with the creditor. Are we talking about one specific creditor or multiple...

Robert Troy: The FAI released a statement which stated that: The bridging loan was made in the best interests of the FAI ... when it experienced a short-term cash flow issue. The board of the FAI [of which Mr. Conway is the chair] has been kept fully informed in relation to this matter at all times. Who issued that statement? It is clearly inaccurate.

Robert Troy: Who signed off on that statement?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Engagement with the Football Association of Ireland (10 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: Who signed off on it? I issue press releases every day, as a politician, as most of us do. Who signed off on a press release that said the board of the FAI "has been kept fully informed in relation to this matter at all times"? Was it Mr. Conway, as chairman of the board and president of the organisation?

Robert Troy: Something came out from the board which alluded to the board being kept informed at all times, yet the board's most senior member was unaware of it. That is strange. I refer to Mr. Delaney's statement. I accept that he is not in a position to comment any further but maybe Mr. Conway can. Of the people identified who can corroborate the sequence of events, none, with the exception of Mr....

Robert Troy: Only two specific dates seem to be mentioned in the Jonathan Hall report. It said the board meeting should make a decision on 22 March and that it should announced its decision on 23 March. Does Mr. Conway think that it was Mr. Hall's place to tell the board when to make its decision and its announcement?

Robert Troy: It seems coincidence that it was announced on a Saturday evening during celebrations for a much welcomed international win. Finally, a previous speaker confirmed that no severance package exists. Is a pension in place?
