Marc MacSharry: Have the Department or Sport Ireland taken the initiative to contact the IRFU to see if it is interested in taking over the €29 million debt relevant to the stadium and the FAI’s stake in it?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (18 Dec 2019)
Marc MacSharry: Would the Minister take the initiative?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (18 Dec 2019)
Marc MacSharry: I presume that will be looked at. Up to €29 million of debt disappearing plus the associated servicing costs would presumably improve the FAI’s position.

Marc MacSharry: I am conscious that something needs to be done. I believe we are heading towards Bank of Ireland putting up a "For Sale" sign on the Aviva stadium. Obviously, no one wants to see that because we are all here to secure Irish football if we can. While I appreciate that the Minister will not answer, I respectfully suggest that he add that option to the list of considerations because it may...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Governance and Funding of Football Association of Ireland: Discussion (18 Dec 2019)
Marc MacSharry: Dead or dry cash, for example, providing €18 million on the never-never, is something we would all be against. I would hate to see that but if it gets to the stage where nothing else can be done, the stadium is a tangible asset that the people would be happy to own. I am a little confused.
