1515. To ask the Minister for Health if the current definition of a sporting event in the current Health Act 1947 (Covid-19) Regulations 2021 precludes sporting organisations not affiliated with a recognised national body from organising a competitive sporting event; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that this has prevented independent and unaffiliated clubs (details supplied) from holding events; his plans to address this matter; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I wish to advise the Deputy that National Governing Bodies and the definition of sporting events is a matter for the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media.
