O'Donoghue: 'Resolution needs to be found'

Former Minister for Sport John O'Donoghue has urged the Government, the GAA and the GPA to find a resolution to the issue of Government grants for GAA inter-county players, following on from the GPA's recent confirmation of strike action by its members from January 1.

"I sincerely hope that the GPA and the GAA and the administer are able to agree on the criteria we outlined but it is not as simple as it looks," O'Donoghue admitted.
