THE Deputy Chair of the Joint Oireachtas Committee for Sport has condemned the GAA for the 'radio silence' from Croke Park following the “heinous and disgusting” incident which left referee Kevin Naughton hospitalised last week.

Deputy Alan Dillon described the Association’s disciplinary sanctions as “soft and light” and said it must now reflect on the situation following the attack on the match official at a Roscommon U17 game between St Aidan’s and St Dominic’s on August 31.
