Duffy: no move on illegal payments

GAA chiefs remain in the dark about Director General Paraic Duffy’s plans for his much anticipated paper on illegal payments to club and county managers.

Duffy vowed earlier this year to tackle the widespread problem of ‘under the counter’ payments which break GAA rules on amateurism and are most prevalent at club level.

It was anticipated his discussion paper on the issue, which may contain suggestions on how to address the issue, would be released around now.
