Subject: New CLRG LETTER. subject:Ending of Disciplinary action

A Chairde,
For the past 21 months CLRG has been deeply immersed in addressing the historical allegations of wrongdoing at CLRG competitions stemming from complaints received in 2022, while at the same time working to introduce real change and reform across our organisation.
From my previous correspondence, you will be aware of the great effort and time invested by CLRG in creating an external, independent disciplinary process to conduct hearings for those individuals facing disciplinary, with the first hearings beginning in 2023.
It is with great regret that I must now inform you that CLRG is no longer in a position to pursue further disciplinary action against those individuals accused of wrongdoing.
This decision was taken by Coiste Faire on behalf of CLRG, and these individuals are now being contacted by our legal team.
I have no doubt many you will be extremely frustrated by this decision, as am I. Unfortunately, it is a necessary and unavoidable course of action at this time.
I would like to note the actions that have been taken by CLRG in recent times to strengthen the processes and procedures around adjudication, helping ensure fair competition and effective adjudication.
Enhanced competition and adjudication procedures were introduced in advance of the 2023 All Ireland Championships that continue to be strictly adhered to and enforced at all CLRG competitions. The procedure for selecting adjudicators for competitions was also amended so that all registered 2,300 CLRG Teachers and Members have a vote in the process.
CLRG is undergoing a modernisation and transformation process, guided by the recommendations of the independent strategic review that took place last year. A new Managing Director has been appointed, with further changes expected in the near future, including the development of a new, robust disciplinary code of practice.
I fully acknowledge how disappointed CLRG Teachers and Members will be with today's news.
However, I would encourage you to continue to place your faith in the organisation as we move forward to best represent the interests of trish dancing across the globe.
Is mise le meas,
Sandra Connick, ADCRG

I have zero faith. (NT) -- TCRG, 22/05/24 20:32:06, Wed
So disappointing. Clear to see who’s in charge at CLRG. The cheats. (NT) -- Kate, 22/05/24 20:36:56, Wed
What a load of BS! I thought clrg had hired external hr company to carry out proceedings? Why is Costa faire to blame (NT) -- Geraldine, 22/05/24 20:37:29, Wed
- They did, but the CLRG disciplinary procedures and rules don’t hold up. The accused just lawyer up, CKRG defence falls thru & the legal fees mount up. They can’t afford to keep going. (NT) -- Shambles, 23/05/24 0:29:49, Thu
Carmel Doyle should resign immediately, for her complete poor handling of this (NT) -- She messed up on so many levels, 22/05/24 20:44:06, Wed
Also Sandra Connick should resign, for failure to see this through. As she promised so many times. (NT) -- TCRG, 22/05/24 20:49:33, Wed
What a crock of Sh1t!!! (NT) -- Anyone who stays with the CLRG after this obviously hasn’t 2 brain cells to rub together., 22/05/24 20:55:07, Wed
Do you also know that at least 30 of the 44 accused received no evidence or proof (NT) -- Get all the facts first, 22/05/24 20:55:43, Wed
- We’ve seen the WhatsApp messages, texts, etc. no more proof is needed (NT) -- Disgraceful, 22/05/24 21:54:20, Wed
  - For all 44 ? I don’t think so!!! (NT) -- Definitely not, 22/05/24 22:05:09, Wed
    - Ask, and I am sure you will receive! (NT) -- ., 22/05/24 22:10:52, Wed
      - Ask who ? (NT) -- 🤥, 22/05/24 22:55:44, Wed
        Sure, we all believe what we sae. But that's not going to hold up in a court. (NT) -- Sorry, 23/05/24 2:23:35, Thu
What happens to the ones who already had their hearing? Absolute shambles of an organisation! (NT) -- Surely any punishments should be dropped now to avoid further law suits., 22/05/24 20:56:24, Wed
Carmel Doyle is nothing more than a compulsive liar! Resign in shame & take the entire top table with you! RIP clrg (NT) -- Sickened, 22/05/24 20:58:15, Wed
How embarrassing!!! (NT) -- We’re gone! Couldn’t possibly be associated with this idiotic organisation any longer . Cringe!!!, 22/05/24 21:01:09, Wed
Whats the point .. feel so bad for my daughter. Her hopes of an even playing field gone (NT) -- Sad parent, 22/05/24 21:10:19, Wed
Top table should step down. The handling of this has been deplorable. (NT) -- We need a petition for Sandra and Carmel to step down NOW!, 22/05/24 21:23:41, Wed
- What would that do? The whole organisation is rotten to the core. (NT) -- The next lot will be as bad . It’s too broken to fix . Time to liquidate!, 22/05/24 21:33:28, Wed
  - Liquidate and the same people join. Seriously?? (NT) -- TCRG, 22/05/24 21:35:26, Wed
- Totally agree- see if other people are as wasteful with money whilst looking after their own! -- Mammy, 22/05/24 21:45:13, Wed
- and then who will step in to take her place? A cheat????? (NT) -- We are doomed, 22/05/24 22:34:06, Wed
- sad thing is there are some in CLRG trying to fix and save it, but the old guard refuse to change or step aside. They’re the ones running CLRG to the ground and will have its collapse as their legacy (NT) -- Sad, 23/05/24 0:33:45, Thu
But they have called a meeting with TCRGs tomorrow to explain why registration and competition fees are being raised by an exorbitant amount. (NT) -- Literally not a brain in the entire organisation., 22/05/24 21:24:20, Wed
- This is part of it - CLRG is literally on the verge of insolvency. They can’t afford to keep paying legal fees when the lose in court so they have had to drop all proceedings! (NT) -- Beginning of the end, 23/05/24 0:36:03, Thu
  - They operated at a loss over 2 years ago!! It’s wasteful spending in SO MANY AREAS (NT) -- The members vote for things that are WASTEFUL spending, 23/05/24 4:31:38, Thu
New letter -- Mammy, 22/05/24 21:29:37, Wed
What a horrible and utter disgrace. You have just insulted every dancer in this organisation -- More inside, 22/05/24 21:31:35, Wed
Teachers, time to seriously consider moving organizations. Comhdhail isn’t that big in my area but if I move there then that’s a first step to building it, and I can do it with my head held high. (NT) -- We’re all being played for fools, 22/05/24 21:31:36, Wed
- Ok Comdhail Mammy. You all thought we would move over years ago. It didn’t happen and it won’t eve happen. (NT) -- Comhdail is as bad or actually worse at politics and being corrupt., 22/05/24 22:30:43, Wed
- Young teachers couldn’t care less, happy with the system of cheating. That’s what they grew up in, They’re part of the problem (NT) -- They’re just money hungry. They’re happy to hide problems once the £’s keep rolling in. Our tcrg admitted he doesn’t care about the cheating “it’s always been like that so just accept it”, 23/05/24 9:10:10, Thu
  - Untrue. It's more like trying to lift the Titanic. (NT) -- "System" needs to go. TCs need to speak up!, 23/05/24 17:39:42, Thu
. -- Robert, 22/05/24 22:53:01, Wed
Well sorry to disappoint but An chomhdhail don’t want or need any of you! . (NT) -- So stay where you are, 22/05/24 23:00:30, Wed
- Yeah that’s why your champs keep moving to us. Comdhdail TCs sending their kids to CLRG TCs. (NT) -- They want to win the real worlds championships. Comhdhail more corrupt than CLRG, 23/05/24 11:13:11, Thu
Ex CLRG dancer in England set up his own school with an open platform organisation (NT) -- Praying my DDs teacher makes the same move, or we'll be transferring, 23/05/24 0:05:28, Thu
- Seen on social media. His dancers are good, a lot have transferred from CLRG. My daughters have also asked for me to enquire (NT) -- Starting to think it's less about results and more about the enjoyment., 23/05/24 13:31:56, Thu
- Who is this? (NT) -- Interested, 23/05/24 17:55:37, Thu
  - Scott cordon (NT) -- .., 23/05/24 18:09:37, Thu
  - Corden Academy in Leeds (NT) -- He was a great dancer himself, 23/05/24 19:14:26, Thu
So glad I left irish dancing when I did. Rotten to the core. (NT) -- Never again, 23/05/24 1:14:41, Thu
Insanity at its finest -- Tcrg, 23/05/24 6:55:04, Thu
All the blame can't go on the 2 ladies. Don't forget the little weasel JM that ran off and left it to them and knew everything that was going on... (NT) -- He's the one to blame!!, 23/05/24 8:22:49, Thu
- Sandra is the scapegoat for all the awful devious things that JM did. (NT) -- This place has been on fire for years, 23/05/24 11:15:41, Thu
