A Governance Review Group has been established in order to reform the FAI.
The Football Association of Ireland and Sport Ireland made the announcement this evening.
The group met today and set out milestones to bring about change ahead of and following the Association’s AGM in Trim in July.
FAI President Donal Conway says the association is committed to change and today is the first step in that direction.
Sport Ireland CEO John Treacy says "The work of the Governance Review Group is vitally important to the FAI progressing on its corporate governance reform agenda."
The group comprises five members, three of which are external members nominated by Sport Ireland and two members nominated by the FAI Board.
It will be chaired independently by Aidan Horan.
