CRO informed of claim FAI failed to keep proper accounts

The beleaguered Football Association of Ireland (FAI) has failed to keep proper accounts, according to its auditors, who have reported the allegation to the body responsible for company law enforcement.

Word that auditors Deloitte has reported the FAI to the Companies Registration Office (CRO) for breaking company law emerged just hours before Sports Minister Shane Ross and officials from Sport Ireland appeared before yesterday’s Oireachtas Sport Committee meeting on the ongoing controversies surrounding the FAI.
