The feis-fixing scandal has cost the world's largest and oldest Irish dancing body more than €1 million to date.

Last weekend, An Coimisiún Le Rincí Gaelacha (CLRG) held its annual general meeting (AGM). Members of the Irish dance organisation, which was embroiled in a fraud scandal at the end of 2022, heard that the controversy has had major financial consequences for the organisation.
