Noel Rock: I will move quickly. I mentioned a football club. It was reported that the club was not able to access its entire prize funds from being involved in European competitions. In December 2010, I understand that Sporting Fingal faced the prospect of leaving players unpaid for Christmas because of the FAI's refusal to pass on the UEFA prize money that was due. My question is for Mr. Murray....

Noel Rock: On page 2 of the accounts for each of the years 2016 to 2018, the College Green branch of Bank of Ireland is listed as the bank which is used. How did the overdraft facility change? Mr. Murray stated the association had changed bank and that was the reason for the reduced overdraft facility.

Noel Rock: Perhaps Mr. O'Connell can shed some light on the matter. To return to my earlier question, in 2015, the association had an overdraft facility of at least €1.9 million. Although we are not sure of the limit, we know from the accounts that there was a facility of €1.9 million. Bank of Ireland is listed as the banking partner in those accounts. In the subsequent years, namely,...

Noel Rock: I would appreciate that. It would be great if it happened as soon as possible. On the Jonathan Hall Associates report, some of my questions may have been asked but our guests might indulge me in that regard. Early March appears repeatedly in the report and Mr. Conway mentioned that the report was commissioned in early March. On which date in early March was it commissioned? Was it before...

Noel Rock: I understand that and Mr. Conway has explained that the FAI and Mr. Delaney, especially in his new role, are working on significant international projects. That is fair enough. I am conscious of the time and, therefore, I ask for answers to be kept as brief as possible. On the report and its mechanics, was more than one draft presented to the board, or was the first draft that was...
