- Seanad: Transport Matters: Statements (4 Apr 2019)
John O'Mahony: I welcome the Minister and thank him for his update on transport matters. He spent much of his presentation on the issues in Dublin - the increased demand for public transport and the plans to increase services on the DART, the Luas and so on. As it is an important matter that can be controversial, I will defer to my urban colleagues in that regard. The Minister also referred to...

John O'Mahony: I am deducting from Mr. Mulvey's comments that Sport Ireland does not have many levers to get this information from the association but I will move on from that.

John O'Mahony: Is Sport Ireland happy with the level of scrutiny it has over all of the governing bodies?

John O'Mahony: Second, Mr. Treacy states in his statement that staffing and contractual arrangements are entirely a matter for the board of the FAI. On the other hand, he states that Sport Ireland part-funded 57 posts within the FAI. Does that mean that Sport Ireland has no governance over that funding, even though it provides the funding, or that it has no say in the salaries of those people who are...
