In the light of current media speculation surrounding the NRL’s investigation into governance issues at Cronulla in 2011 it is important to reiterate that the investigation is ongoing.

At its regular meeting today the Commission was briefed on the progress of the investigation and the fact that matters are still being assessed.

From the outset the NRL has highlighted the seriousness of the matters in question and the need for a thorough and rigorous process.

Any consideration of potential breaches of the NRL Rules are assessed by either the NRL Chief Executive or Chief Operating Officer.
