Leinster investigating stadium safety issue

Monday 8 Jan 2018

At the match on Saturday, there was an issue with the flooring in a single isolated row of seats in the grandstand.

As a result, up to 12 patrons were moved from their seats and the area was shut down.

There were no injuries reported at the time and a formal investigation is now underway by the RDS in conjunction with their event safety management contractors.

Leinster also confirmed that reports of the grandstand collapsing were not true.
