Motorsport Ireland are pleased to announce that the TROA will have a seat at the Motorsport Ireland Rallies Committee and an Motorsport Ireland Representative will be appointed to the TROA Executive Committee.

With the inclusion of the Jim Clark Rally resulting in an even split in the number of events run under the jurisdiction of the respective governing bodies it has been agreed that an MSA representative will also be appointed to the TROA Executive Committee.

Cecil Sparks, Chairman MI Commission stated "These new arrangements will produce consistency in the organisation of events and Championships which will ultimately benefit competitors, sponsors and the sport."

Commenting on the new arrangements Tom Walsh, TROA Chairman, stated, "We are all looking forward to the return of rallying following the problems of FMD and we are pleased that the premier Rally Championship has been endorsed by both governing bodies."
