Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Football Association of Ireland's Facility Investment Vision and Strategy, and Governance Issues: Discussion (13 Dec 2023)

Christopher O'Sullivan: Okay. I will move to Mr. Barrett. He is clearly a key figure in all this, as outlined by Ms Joyce. He was the first person to bring it to Ms Joyce's attention.
