evidence: Following the collapse of plans to build a single national stadium on the site of the former Maze/Long Kesh prison, the NI Executive agreed to support redevelopment of stadiums for football, GAA and rugby, individually. This was never agreed as a financial “equal split” between three sports or three sporting associations. From the start, estimated costs for development varied significantly. It is worth noting that the projected spend for redeveloping Casement Park is now much higher than when the allocation was first agreed.
