The CCCC will be able to determine neutral venues for the All Ireland Senior Football Championship.

Motion 19 being carried now means the neutral venue can now be decided by CCCC.

An amendment will be made to the rule which previously specified that Croke Park must be one of the neutral venues for All Ireland SFC Quarter-Final Group Phase games.

Dublin GAA's John Costello, Mayo GAA's Paul Cunnane, and Munster GAA's Kieran Leddy all spoke in favour of the motion which was carried with a 90% majority.
