- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: Is the Minister, Deputy Ross, happy for the existing board to remain in situ, given that this board has been in place and has overseen the practices that led us to where we are today? It continues to be evasive and refuses to answer basic questions about, for example, who signed off on a press release stating the members were all in full knowledge of the €100,000 bridging loan. Is...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: I put it to the Minister that they have been in situ. These are the people who have not overseen adequate corporate governance for the last years. These are the people who have overseen the procedures that brought the Minister to the committee today, the FAI to the committee last week and Sport Ireland to the committee the week before. Does the Minister have confidence that these people...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: Okay. There seems to be a resistance or reservations about conducting a full, independent audit. Sport Ireland seems to be relying on Mazars and Grant Thornton. Given that Mr. Mulvey said he has had a cursory look at the terms and conditions for the Mazars piece of work how can Sport Ireland be satisfied that the terms and conditions will adequately address the wide ranging issues that...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)
Robert Troy: The last time Mr. Mulvey was before the committee I asked if the board of Sport Ireland was made aware at any time of potential irregularities within the FAI. Mr. Mulvey said that it was not and that he was unaware. This is despite the fact that there was a well-publicised case in the High Court with a member of the Sport Ireland board that came about - I understand - because of concerns...
