Motion 2

That an All-Ireland B football championship be established for the counties in Division Four of the AFL, who wouldn’t be allowed access to the All-Ireland qualifiers. Proposed by Central Council.

Outcome: Withdrawn

Motion 4

That the intercounty minor grade be reduced from under-18 to under-17 in order to take the players out of consideration for senior club matches. This is one of the chief recommendations of director general Páraic Duffy’s November document and has been proposed by Central Council.

Outcome: Accepted 68 per cent to 32.

Motion 5

That the intercounty football under-21 championship be regraded to under-20 and played during the summer as an exclusively developmental age grade with no participants eligible for senior intercounty. Another of Duffy’s recommendations and proposed by Central Council.

Outcome: Accepted 68-31.

Motion 7

That All-Ireland finals be brought forward with the football played on the first Sunday in September with the hurling final two weeks previously. This is intended to clear further weekends for club activity and also comes from the Duffy document. Proposed by Central Council.

Outcome: Rejected 61-39 (failure to secure two thirds of vote)

Motion 41

This has been proposed by the Standing Committee on the playing rules.

Outcome: Accepted 68-32

Outcome: Rejected 15-85
