Written answers

Sport Ireland, which is funded by my Department, is the statutory body with responsibility for the promotion, development and co-ordination of sport. This includes responsibility for the area of anti-doping, including testing of athletes. I have referred the Deputy's question to Sport Ireland for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to inform my office if a reply is not received within 10 days.

The referred reply under Standing Order 42A was forwarded to the Deputy.
