The following is a breakdown of the number of applications for Garda vetting received at the Garda Central Vetting Unit for 2006 and to date in 2007 in respect of sports organisations recognised by the Irish Sports Council which are registered with the Central Vetting Unit:
Organisation | 2006 | 2007 |
Junior Golf Ireland* | 4 | 89 |
Football Association of Ireland | N/A | 387 |
Irish Pony Club | N/A | 49 |
*Commenced making applications in September, 2006 only. |
A breakdown in respect of applicants as employees or volunteers is not kept as all applications, whether for full time or part-time employees or volunteers who have unsupervised access to children or vulnerable adults, received from registered organisations are processed. The GAA have not applied to be a registered organisation for these purposes.
