- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Engagement with the Football Association of Ireland (10 Apr 2019)
Mark Daly: Many of the questions have been asked already. I will not go into them in great detail but I would like to get clarity on some of them. On the issue of John Delaney's appointment to his new role, I do not know Mr. Delaney very well but I know that as an ambassador for Ireland and Irish sports he has done an amazing job and I am sure he will do an amazing job in this regard. He has worked...

Mark Daly: We have loads of women throughout our organisation, including spokespersons. Deputy Lisa Chambers is doing an excellent job on Brexit. I am sure if she were in Westminster, she would have sorted it out a long time ago, as would all of the women. As part of the governance review, the FAI should make sure the women's soccer team and all of the women who will, I hope, account for half of...

Mark Daly: I asked a question and it has not been answered.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Engagement with the Football Association of Ireland (10 Apr 2019)
Mark Daly: On the specific issue of the money, the FAI had 24 accounts, 11 of which were allocated to specific projects. It had 13 other accounts, only one of which was used to pay money. The other 12 accounts did not cumulatively contain €100,000 that could be transferred into the operational account.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Engagement with the Football Association of Ireland (10 Apr 2019)
Mark Daly: Let us be honest: that is the most obvious question. The FAI drew down a loan from a member of staff. If it knew it was going to be short of money, the first thing it would do is look at the other accounts to see if it had enough money to cover the debt. Mr. O'Connell has not had sight of or brought information on how much money was in the remaining 12 accounts in that week.

Mark Daly: Mr. O'Connell does not have that information for the committee.

Mark Daly: It seems that the association will have to revert to the committee on many issues. One must bear in mind that the governance review is helpful and so on. Deputy Rock raised a very specific point about it being signed off by the board and then sent, but there was a delay and there it seems to have been edited. Mr. Conway made the point that there was a technical edit. Many documents...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Engagement with the Football Association of Ireland (10 Apr 2019)
Mark Daly: I have no problem with that. By way of example, the committee previously held meetings in regard to the coastguard. Under freedom of information, we requested the original draft of a report and compared it with the one presented to a Minister. Everything that was harmful to the people before the committee had been removed from the latter version. We are talking about establishing...
