Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Business of Joint Committee (27 Nov 2019)

John O'Mahony: By extension, Government funding cannot be started again until everything is teased out. The longer that goes, the programmes for coaches and children are being denied. In other words, there are innocent victims of all of this. Euro 2020 is in Ireland next year and that is being funded by the Government as well. Whether that is affected as well is a question. There is an urgency that all...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (28 Nov 2019)

John O'Mahony: Yesterday, Sport Ireland received the KOSI report it had commissioned in respect of the governance of the FAI. That report was handed over to the Garda for investigation. The report was due to be discussed by the Joint Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport, which began the process relating to this matter. Obviously, the joint committee's deliberations in this regard will now be...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (3 Dec 2019)

John O'Mahony: On Thursday I raised the issue of governance in sport as a result of the KOSI report that was published last week and presented to the Garda by Sport Ireland. I called for the Minister, Deputy Ross, to come to the House to discuss the matter. Since then events have overtaken that request, in that the CEO, who had been appointed and was due to meet the FAI staff yesterday morning, pulled out...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (10 Dec 2019)

John O'Mahony: I assumed when I saw Tomás outside that he had come to announce Kerry's arrival now that Mr. Jim Gavin has stepped down. He is very welcome. He has been a great ambassador for the GAA and for Kerry, and a great pundit on "The Sunday Game". I do not always agree with all of the pundits, but Tomás Ó Sé is brilliant. I hope he enjoys his stay and keeps Kerry and Cork on...

John O'Mahony: I thank the Cathaoirleach for his indulgence earlier and that of my colleagues. He is very welcome back. One's health is the most important thing in life. It is great to see the Cathaoirleach back in charge again. I support Senators Craughwell and Humphreys regarding their comments on the FAI. I will not indulge myself in speaking about this because I wish to raise another issue. I...

John O'Mahony: I add my congratulations on the team's wonderful success both at last year's world cup and for qualifying for the Olympics. For all of us who are passionate about sport, these were two special moments with the team's qualification for the world cup when no one expected it, breaking the glass ceiling, and there was the Sunday night some months ago in the terrible weather during dramatic...
