The Ulster Council has strongly rejected claims that it "pressured or bullied any individual or organisation in any way".
The provincial body was forced to issue a statement after the allegation was made during a Stormont Committee meeting yesterday. Paul Scott of the Safety and Technical Group (STG) told the North's Departure of Culture, Arts and Leisure Committee that the Ulster Council had put "undue" pressure on him over his views of the Casement Park redevelopment plan.
He said that he had issued a complaint of bullying and harassment with the chief executive of Sport Northern Ireland.
"We have an impeccable safety record within our stadia throughout Ulster and Ireland," the Ulster Council statement read.
"The GAA is appalled at being brought into a live and ongoing HR grievance matter within Sport NI. We are also concerned that today's events could prejudice our forthcoming planning application for a provincial stadium project at Casement Park."
