		</div><p>The Chairman of the Dáil&#8217;s Transport Committee has defended the decision not to call in FAI Chief John Delaney to discuss a €5m payout from FIFA.</p>
<p>It was announced yesterday that Mr Delaney will not face questions from TDs about the payment &#8211; which came in the wake of Thierry Henry&#8217;s handball which stopped Ireland from qualifying for the 2010 World Cup.</p>
<p>The Committee said it received procedural advice that the matter was outside its remit, because the funds are not public money.</p>
<p>Fine Gael&#8217;s John O&#8217;Mahony, the Chairperson of the Transport and Sport Committee, said: &#8220;What&#8217;s important is that we follow the rules of what the committee does cover and doesn&#8217;t cover.</p>
<p>&#8220;What happened last October following the Angela Kerins case is that protocols were drawn up in relation to what was the exact remit of committees.</p>
<p>&#8220;Obviously, that advice when it is given has to be taken into consideration as well.&#8221;</p>
