Chapter 4: Re-allocation of Voted Funding (22 Jun 2023) Alan Kelly: There is no problem with that, and time-wise it would be better. I ask the Department to provide all of this. Let us be clear that I have made these questions very obvious. I want to know the public versus private amounts paid for the Ryder Cup and the total amount paid in relation to the overall project, which is now €60 million. I ask the Department to break this down for us....

Chapter 4: Re-allocation of Voted Funding (22 Jun 2023) Alan Kelly: My next questions relate to sport. I was very complimentary to Sport Ireland last week but I was also taken aback. There is great confusion about its role. Sport Ireland is not regulator. It stated it has no role in large-scale capital allocations made directly from the Department or in sports capital. I will be honest; I was shocked by what happened with regard to sports capital funding...

Chapter 4: Re-allocation of Voted Funding (22 Jun 2023) Alan Kelly: What shocked me was that Sport Ireland had no opinion on the FAI's large plan for €863 million. It had no opinion on it because that is not its role. How can Sport Ireland not have a role in this?

Chapter 4: Re-allocation of Voted Funding (22 Jun 2023) Alan Kelly: Is it not strange that Sport Ireland has no role in stating what we need to do and that this is how it should be administered, and to join up the dots with that work that it does?

Chapter 4: Re-allocation of Voted Funding (22 Jun 2023) Alan Kelly: I just think that day is over. The left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. To ensure that capital is going where it should go optimally, it should go where Sports Ireland advocates. Otherwise bring it back into the Department. It should be one or the other. It is in a halfway house at present.

Alan Kelly: I welcome the witnesses. I have been knocking around here for a good while and this is the most extraordinary meeting I have had in the Committee of Public Accounts, and I have been to a lot of them. I have so many questions I could be here all day. I know I will have two rounds. I want to make a series of points first and then I will get to the questions. First, I hope Dee Forbes does...
