I propose to take Questions Nos. 569 and 583 together.

​I have referred the Deputy's question to Sport Ireland for direct response in relation to expenditure on legal advice by the Authority or by Sport Ireland relating to Freedom of Information since 2012.  I would ask the Deputy to inform my office if a reply is not received within 10 days.
