Pádraig Ó Céidigh: In relation to not just the FAI but other organisations that Sport Ireland has funded?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Pádraig Ó Céidigh: That is important, quite frankly, because that helps us with a level playing field on this. What has Sport Ireland learned in three to five key areas from this experience?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Pádraig Ó Céidigh: I accept that. Am I right to say that Sport Ireland only discovered this in relation to the FAI recently and in relation to the OCI after the ticketing scandal? In other words, the audits did not show these issues.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Pádraig Ó Céidigh: There are a lot of learnings Sport Ireland can take from this in order to strengthen its role to make it more or as relevant as it should be. It has a number of terms and conditions attached to grant approval. Section 4.3 talks about material deterioration. If it wishes, Sport Ireland can appoint external auditors. It can also monitor trends and issues development. It has compliance...

Pádraig Ó Céidigh: Would Sport Ireland consider requesting them to obtain an independent certificate of corporate compliance, as happens in the case of an audit certificate, for example? It is something else that could be done, but it would be totally up to Sport Ireland. I remember asking the question two weeks ago as to whether there were red flags in the past. Sport Ireland stated there had been none in...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Pádraig Ó Céidigh: Maybe Mr. Mulvey cannot, for legal reasons.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Pádraig Ó Céidigh: I accept that, but does Mr. Mulvey accept that there have been issues in the past between the FAI and the Irish Sports Council, as it was then?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Pádraig Ó Céidigh: There is another article by Emmet Malone from Saturday, 24 August 2013 that claimed the FAI had written to the then Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Varadkar, asking him to initiate an investigation into the actions of its former executives, in an attempt to have the Irish Sports Council conduct such an inquiry.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Pádraig Ó Céidigh: It is the same incident. Can Mr. Mulvey give us an outline of what happened without being put on the spot from a legal point of view? Was that satisfactorily resolved?

Pádraig Ó Céidigh: I believe the chairman's and the CEO's team will do a very good job in doing soccer in Ireland a great favour. Everybody here is confident in that respect. To follow on from Deputy Coppinger's point, I am looking at Mr. Delaney's statement on 10 April, in which he said an internal finance committee meeting had been held on Tuesday, 25 April 2017 and that the organisation had been...
