In August 2010 the Irish Sports Council (ISC) has reported an Anti-Doping Rule Violation against the Athlete IS-1522 (the Athlete) after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance cannabis in a concentration above the WADA threshold.
The Athlete testified at the hearing. He confirmed that he had consumed cannabis in a social context on different occasions in advance of, but unconnected with, his sporting activities. He also admitted that he had used cannabis since the date of his testing.
On 16 December 2010 the Panel decides to impose a 6 month period of ineligibility on the Athlete starting on 1 March 2011.
