Catherine Martin’s comments in Dáil come after Labour’s Aodhán Ó Ríordáin calls for a 3 per cent rise in betting levy
Ms Martin said it was understood that money raised from the betting levy goes into the “general exchequer funds” rather than being ringfenced for particular purposes.
The Labour TD said the FAI’s recent vision and investment strategy, which seeks €863 million over 15 years, had to be supported and that it spelled out a lack of basic facilities for young players, especially girls. “The one thing that governments want and what Ministers want is good governance and data … if you have that, there is loads of money out there,” he said.
