THE organisation which represents National Governing Bodies and Local Sports Partnerships has told the Government that it wants betting and sugar tax revenues to be allocated for funding of Irish sports.
In a strongly delivered pre-budget submission to government, the Federation of Irish Sport has called for tax reforms and increased funding for Irish sports bodies and partnerships, in a raft of changes to how sport is funded next year.
