The country’s three main sporting organisations have taken the proactive step to combine their powers to submit a plan for the safe return of spectators to matches.

In a statement released by all three this afternoon, the FAI, GAA, and IRFU confirmed they met to agree on a joint effort to persuade Government to allow crowds to return to games at their venues.
