Kenoy hails Central Council role in IRFU, FAI agreement

TOMMY KENOY, one of the chief advocates for amending Rule 42, has praised the Central Council’s role in yesterday’s historic decision.

The council gave the green light for Croke Park to be opened last December when, under the terms of the amendment passed at Congress last April, they were under no obligation to do so.

“Thankfully, Central Council agreed to go ahead and discuss the matter late last year, when technically there was no planning permission in for Lansdowne Road or there was no demolition started,” said Kenoy, who also praised the role played by Association president Sean Kelly.
