- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Integration of LGFA and Camogie Association with the GAA: Discussion (10 Apr 2024)
Malcolm Byrne: What is the witnesses' ask of the State? Obviously, there is the issue of funding. Our committee wants to support this process as does Government. Where do you see the State being able to assist? There are specific funding asks but I am also thinking of what our committee can recommend to the Minister and Government. The visibility question is also critical in the area of sport and...

Malcolm Byrne: I will put the question of what the State can do to Mr. Ó Broin as well. What does he expect of our committee? He mentioned funding specifically, but let us drill that down. Everyone comes looking for funding support. What else can we do to support the LGFA?
- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Integration of LGFA and Camogie Association with the GAA: Discussion (10 Apr 2024)
Malcolm Byrne: Does Mr. Ó Broin believe that is correct that any GAA club should currently be charging a camogie club or a ladies' Gaelic football club to use their facilities?
- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Integration of LGFA and Camogie Association with the GAA: Discussion (10 Apr 2024)
Malcolm Byrne: I accept the point Mr. Ó Broin is making. However, within local communities, we should not have a situation whereby a local GAA club is charging another local sporting club within the same code for use of the facilities.

Malcolm Byrne: I thank all the witnesses. This is obviously a very important issue around bringing the associations together as one but also particularly around enhancing women's sport. I am going to focus on the younger people who are here, namely, Ms Aisling Groarke and Mr. Cormac Spain. As for Mr. Spain's question on Cuala GAA, yes, we have heard of it. Our parliamentary colleague, Deputy Devlin,...

Some of it is on the funding side and some is on other aspects of Government policy. What are the recommendations that Mr. Spain and Ms Groarke would like to make, whether it be in regard to the educational system, sports...
- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Integration of LGFA and Camogie Association with the GAA: Discussion (10 Apr 2024)

- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Support for Development of Regional Film and Television Production: Discussion (20 Mar 2024)
Malcolm Byrne: I thank all of the witnesses and not just for their presentations today.
