FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: Thank you. You are all very welcome. In the first instance, in relation to sport, we do not spend nearly enough money on it but the one thing we want to see is that sport is well governed. That is what will give us the confidence to invest further. My first question is for Ms Joyce. Were you the person who ultimately had responsibility for embedding MOU No. 35 in the FAI?

FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: We are seeing emails where people were seemingly making requests but there have to be controls against which those requests are matched. Where were the controls? There was a fallout from this whereby funding was withheld. It had quite a substantial impact on soccer and the FAI. Where were the controls?

FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: Sorry to interrupt but there has been a loss of confidence as a consequence of this, particularly confidence in the board. Have you lost confidence in any member of the organisation as a consequence of this? Are you doubting and feeling that you have to watch everything now?

FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: I want to ask Dr. May about the targeted funding related to Covid, the aim of which was to make sure that none of the organisations became insolvent. Obviously sport was incredibly important at that time, particularly at grassroots level. Was it intended that those funds would be used to keep the grassroots elements going? It seems extraordinary that there was a huge reduction in debt...

FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: What I am trying to get to is whether this funding was appropriately spent. There was an expectation that some of this money would go to the grassroots. Did it go to reducing the debt of the FAI as opposed to making sure that grassroots flourished or at least continued during that time?

FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: I might come back to that later on, if we get a second round. I go back to another point relating to Mr. Hill's pension arrangements. They are paid directly by the FAI. Is that a matching contribution?
