Alan Dillon: Certainly, that clarification was required at the time they were received back on 30 November, and not last week. Do you agree?

(22 Feb 2024)

Alan Dillon: I welcome the witnesses and wish the president of the FAI, Mr. Cooke, and its new independent chair, Mr. Keohane, the very best of luck. My first question is to Mr. Keohane.

Alan Dillon: Okay. On the previous meeting of the Joint Oireachtas Committee on sport, does Mr. Keohane accept that Mr. Hill delivered an accurate account with regard to the details he presented back in December?

(22 Feb 2024)

Alan Dillon: Essentially, back in December, Mr. Hill denied ever requesting the payments and he sought to quote the former CFO, stating, "Jonathan requesting to be paid out of unused holidays." We have the evidence here today with regard to what the former CFO has said. This email also includes a caveat warning: "Our normal policy is not to. It is use them or lose them." That is substantially...

Alan Dillon: Mr. Keohane can understand that they are central to these emails. These are crucial witnesses who, in one sense, outlined their concerns with regard to this request.
