Shannon Heritage is part of the Shannon Group, which operates in the aviation and tourism sectors.

As the Minister knows, the memorandum of understanding, MOU, with the FAI is a Shane Ross production. The MOU enabled Sport Ireland to restore funding to the FAI of €2.9 million per annum and to provide additional annual funding of €2.9 million for football development up to 2023.
