Suspended Congress finishes

GAA Congress has finished at Croke Park this afternoon after a protest caused the event to be suspended.

The demonstrators unfurled a banner behind the top table, voicing their opposition to the Association's sponsorship links to Allianz.

GAA President Jarlath Burns told delegates a security guard was injured in the scuffle which followed.
