Leo Varadkar has said it is important for the IRFU to listen to the people who may be excluded from playing sport, after the rugby organisation announced a decision to ban trans women from playing contact rugby.
Speaking from Roscommon town for the opening of Fine Gael Senator Aisling Dolan’s office, the Tanaiste said: “I think it’s something that sporting bodies in Ireland and around the world are really struggling with.
“I think it is very important that the IRFU and World Rugby and anybody that’s making decisions on this listens to the voice of those who are most affected, and of course those who are potentially most affected here are those who may be excluded from playing sport.
