The Ulster Council has issued a brief statement following their investigation into an allegation of sledging during this year's Minor match between Donegal and Tyrone.

Following online claims that the Tyrone players has been absolved of any blame, the Council says that the findings of its investigation will remain confidential.

However, it adds that the "recent media reports regarding the investigation do not accurately reflect the findings of the Committee."

"Following a request from the Tyrone County Committee, Ulster GAA through its CCC established an Investigation Committee in May 2015 which met on seven occasions over a four month period to review evidence and witness statements alongside conducting a range of interviews with the relevant parties," the statement reads.

"At a meeting on Wednesday 23rd September the Committee reviewed its findings with both Tyrone and Donegal and the concluding report was agreed by all parties. The Committee agreed with both County Committees that the findings will remain confidential. We would also highlight that recent media reports regarding the investigation do not accurately reflect the findings of the Committee.

"All parties were satisfied that this matter was resolved and there will be no further comment from Ulster GAA."
