John McGuinness: To go back to how HSI allocates its money, I read an article this year about how the world equestrian games became an issue and was written about in various newspapers regarding attempts to stage the event in Ireland. Discussion took place about sponsorship of a considerable amount of US dollars. There were also discussions on support for the event within Ireland. It did not take off and...

John McGuinness: Dr. Pearse Lyons spoke about a sponsorship package covering the total cost of the event. The cost of hosting the event was stated to be $25 million, most of which would have been put up by a company sponsor. Efforts were made locally, according to the article, by interested parties who would like to see this huge event fill hotels and guest houses, but nothing happened. Why was this? The...

John McGuinness: Did Horse Sport Ireland ask the Irish Sports Council about this event? I am interested in this because of the spin-off it would have had for small businesses and many others.

Was the Department...

John McGuinness: Maybe you did not because the event was not held here. I am interested in how the Irish Sports Council promotes itself and what went on at the time. Perhaps Mr. Morgan might give an explanation in response to this. He can come back to us after the meeting. It was reported as being true in the newspapers that interested parties in the horse business in Ireland were willing to assist in the...

John McGuinness: That may be the case, but I am referring to what I have read in the newspapers. I appreciate paper never refuses ink, but perhaps the Department might use its pen to describe to me what happened at the time. It is important the taxpayer and the hospitality sector understand if there is another story to this. It seems to be a missed opportunity but I am willing to be convinced otherwise if...
