Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)

Robert Troy: It was alluded to that Mr. Delaney was on "gardening leave". As one would expect, he is still in receipt of pay. We know that Sport Ireland has suspended funding to the FAI. It has been reported that the FAI has debts in the region of €28 million on the Aviva and that currently there are three separate consultants' reports under way, all of which are being paid for by the FAI. Is...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)

Robert Troy: Sport Ireland met the board of the FAI last night and that board again withheld key information, as confirmed by the delegates to my colleagues on a number of occasions. That is an indication that the FAI continues to give the two fingers to Sport Ireland and that it is the FAI that is driving the agenda and setting the pace. Even today, at the eleventh hour, it wrote to the Minister for...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)

Robert Troy: Is Sport Ireland setting a time limit for when it is to be done? Please forgive me, but the FAI had a corporate governance committee established in January 2017. I accept that there is a lot more attention from the media, political representatives and Sport Ireland, but is there a timeline for when the report will be concluded?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)

Robert Troy: On the terms of reference for the Mazars report, it was said it was from memory. I am sorry, but I believe that in coming here today it should not be from memory. Sport Ireland should have sought a copy of the terms of reference, even if it was not to be shared with us today, and the delegate could have had it on the desk to refer to it. He could have said, "Yes, that is in it," and so on,...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (16 Apr 2019)

Robert Troy: Thanks to investigative journalism, not to the work done by Sport Ireland, every Sunday we are made aware of what is going on in the FAI. It is a moving ship. How can we have confidence that the terms of reference will encapsulate all of what needs to be encapsulated, vis-à-visthe examples I have given?

Robert Troy: The Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport has committed to a review of taxi licences. We know that a number of weeks ago there was an exposé where the Garda, working with the NTA, exposed scores of illegal drivers operating on our island under fraudulent names and fraudulent documentation.
