The IRCA met with Dr. Frank O'Donoghue, the Medical Officer in charge of Doping in Motorsport, on Tuesday 11th December. The meeting proved most informative and Dr. O'Donoghue gave excellent assurances on certain areas. The fact is that the policy is in place and we can expect to see testing in the near future. Control over which events will be tested lies only with the Sports Council and they will give Motorsport Ireland short notice.
