It was noted that ground rent for championship games had not yet been received from Comhairle Uladh. The Accounts were adopted on the proposal of J O’Neill and seconded by N McGeary. 5.2 No Accounts were presented for O’Neill Park Dungannon or Fr Campbell Park Coalisland. 6.0 •Secretary’s Report• 6.1 Commenting on the Ulster Final, B Harkin stated that the sending-off of Tyrone’s two top forwards was an illegal act, yet the powers that be allowed the result of the match to stand; he wondered if Tyrone had acted illegally and included an extra player on the field would any action have been taken. 6.2 Frank Campbell paid tribute to Dominic McCaughey, F Logan and Adrian Colton on the work undertaken in preparation of an Appeal, on behalf of R McMenamin, to the Disputes’ Resolution Authority arising from the suspension imposed on him following the Ulster Final. 6.3 George Byrne, referring to county players, pointed out that Rory O’Neill represented Ireland at U-21 level in the compromise shinty / hurling international against Scotland. 6.4 Speaking on the report of Coiste na Réiteoirí Adrian Gilmore expressed disappointment that no response had been received in relation to a grievance submitted by his Club some six weeks earlier. Michael McGoldrick stated that there was no record of its receipt, but that he would have the matter dealt with. 6.5 The Cathaoirleach congratulated Aghaloo GFC on winning the overall Disciplinary League in 2006. When the idea of Disciplinary tables was first introduced it was considered novel and although it was not a very scientific tool, it did provide a blunt method of measuring sportsmanship among teams at adult level. 6.6 The Secretary’s Report and the reports of the sub-committees were adopted on the proposal of P McCartan which was seconded by T McQuillan 7.0 •Treasurer’s Report• 7.1 The annual Accounts for the year ending 31st October 2005 were presented by County Treasurer, Seamus McDonald.

This year we won the All Ireland senior Football Championship for the second time in three years. We recently appointed our first full time administrator. Next year we plan to complete a state of the art stadium in Healy Park. Our clubs are strong and our schools dominate competitions. With good sponsors and Club Tyrone our income is sound. Notwithstanding these successes, challenges lie ahead in the promotion of Gaelic football and hurling. We cannot predict what might happen over the next century but we can ensure our governance is fit for whatever purpose we face. In this context I outline three aspects of governance which will be to the forefront of future success. Namely voluntariness, grassroots and rules. Voluntary governance or governance by volunteers has made the GAA the success it is today. Its philosophy is simple – I work for nothing because I know you work for nothing and we both know everyone else does the same. Its core is amateurism. No financial rewards but intrinsic rewards based on values and beliefs that satisfaction comes from making a contribution which makes a difference. This does not mean we cannot have paid positions to manage key aspects in our organisation – both can co-exist.
