Martin Breheny: GAA should steer clear of pointless empty-gesture politics and keep Allianz as one of its main sponsors
"The GAA's Ethics and Integrity Commission is certainly taking its time, which is indeed the ethical thing to do with a matter of such importance."
"Tasked in September with a review of sponsorship of the National Leagues by Allianz - specifically, if it should be discontinued amid claims that the company's investments were aiding the Israeli military - they have yet to issue findings or recommendations."
The GAA's Ethics and Integrity Commission began a review in September into Allianz's sponsorship of the National Leagues. The review specifically considers whether the sponsorship should be discontinued because of claims that Allianz's investments were aiding the Israeli military. The commission has not issued any findings or recommendations to date. The commission's pace has been characterized as slow, justified by the gravity of the ethical questions involved. The unresolved status leaves the future of the National Leagues' sponsorship arrangement uncertain and maintains public attention on investment-related accountability.
