The FAI is claiming privilege over two documents wanted by the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement for their investigation into the organisation.
The ODCE are delving into ongoings at the FAI following the controversy that led to the resignation of former CEO John Delaney.
"The request for privilege on these two documents was made on the back of external legal advice to the FAI," read an FAI statement.
"To date, the FAI has produced tens of thousands of documents to the ODCE, including 40,000 in a production three weeks ago. Privilege was not sought over any of those 40,000 documents.
"A previous privilege request regarding 14 passages, contained in a total of 16 documents, was upheld by the High Court earlier this year.
"To date, the FAI has sought privilege on 16 documents in total from the tens of thousands submitted to the ODCE. The FAI continues to co-operate fully with the ongoing ODCE investigation."
