11.8.1 J Treacy proposed Motion 8 on behalf of Clonoe on the basis of good governance.
He said that the County Committee appoints up to 20 sub-committees / workgroups
and then takes reports from them at its meetings every two months. However
many things can happen during a 9-week cycle that the County Committee may
not know about; by meeting on a monthly basis the County Committee would be
fully-informed of what was taking place at sub-committee level.
11.8.2 Dermot McCaughey seconded the motion.
11.8.3 A Maguire was of the opinion that in recent times there was too much changing
of when the County Committee should meet and when the CCC should meet.
There was a need for a decision to be taken on the matter and then it should be
left alone.
11.8.4 M Harvey spoke against the motion on the basis that it would be imposing too
many meetings on volunteers who were members of a range of other committees,
citing that at present the Management Committee met monthly, the Finance
Committee met monthly and now on top of this it was being proposed that the
County Committee should meet monthly. He thought that meetings on a twomonthly
basis were sufficient, especially when it was possible to call an additional
special meeting if an issue of importance arose.
11.8.5 In his summary, J Treacy suggested that while he appreciated that there are issues
considered by Management Committee that can be sensitive, things could go on at
Management level that are not brought to the attention of the County Committee.
11.8.6 Decision: Motion was defeated as it failed to obtain a two-thirds majority on a vote
of 49 in favour and 40 against.
11.9.1 Motion 9 was proposed by P McCartan on behalf of Beragh. Referring to fines
imposed last year by the CCC on his Club for breaches of Match Regulations he
stated that each fine was too high for each of their players who went on to the
field. He was of the opinion also that a fine should not be imposed for each player
in excess of the allowed number who breached the Regulations. He indicated a
preference for disciplinary action being taken against the individuals / team rather
than imposing fines.
11.9.2 S Darcy seconded the motion.
11.9.3 Decision: Motion was passed.
11.10.1 G Bradley proposed Motion 10 on behalf of Gortin. He indicated that his Club
was not taking a swipe at any sub-committee or its membership but thought that
passing this motion would help to spread representation of membership across all
sub-committees.
11.10.2 B Doherty seconded the motion.
11.10.3 C McLaughlin opposed the motion on the grounds that it would create greater
difficulties in finding appropriate people to serve on the large number of subcommittees
for the next five years.
