- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications: Broadcasting Rights: Gaelic Athletic Association (15 Apr 2014)
Timmy Dooley: I would like for sure to hear the broader debate but we are here to discuss 14 games that will no longer be free-to-air in Ireland. I accept absolutely the GAA's obligation to ensure that the diaspora is looked after but it could have gone ahead with the deal in Australia and with RTE in respect of its digital platform and it would still have had access to the diaspora, to the emigrants and...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications: Broadcasting Rights: Gaelic Athletic Association (15 Apr 2014)
