I am aware that St. Enda's sports complex has been experiencing financial problems. My Department has taken appropriate action as a result of which the need to put into effect the protective notice which had been issued to the staff should not now arise.
My Department has fully complied with its commitments under the agreed arrangements for the financing of this sports complex, and is in consultation with the other parties concerned, with a view to obviating any recurrence of the financial difficulties which have been recently experienced in the running of the complex.
