National Governing Bodies
Dail Éireann — 2026-06-11
============================================================

Robert O'Donoghue (LAB), Dublin Fingal West

Has consideration been given to the establishment of an independent governance authority for sporting and volunteer organisations to oversee committee conduct, ensure compliance with governance standards, provide independent dispute resolution mechanisms and support transparency and accountability in organisational administration? I have been asking this question for a while and I seem to be pushed from one agency to another without being able to get a clear answer.
