GAA bodies hope to continue developing projects for clubs until they are told otherwise.
On Tuesday evening club projects were further progressed by the Munster Council.
It's understood that the GAA will soon begin the process of seeking further state assistance to compensate for a loss of €50m earnings if no championships take place in 2020.
For now, however, units at provincial and ground level are trying to keep going as best they can.
"We met online and approved a number of projects that clubs had been waiting for and what we will do is try to keep going as long as possible," said Munster Council PRO and former Cork chairman, Bob Ryan.
"Those clubs were looking for clarification and were anxious to progress projects they had in the pipeline for some time, so we were glad to approve those and keep things going.
"We are looking at it from the perspective of people too. They are most important in all of what is going on.
"We will try to deal with the financial implications of having no games, but our people have to be looked after. Our employees are an integral part of the GAA. They need to be protected too.
"We also have massive properties around the place that we need to be maintained and it’s in everyone’s best interests that they are too."
With the Covid-19 pandemic upsetting all revenue streams, it’s understood that Croke Park will consider calling for further state aid.
Currently, it receives €6.1m in Government assistance per annum.
But with grave uncertainty surrounding any likely action in 2020, the losses in gate receipts and commercial income in all four corners of the country will be massive.
The 2019 Munster Senior Hurling Championship alone took in gate receipts of €5.35m, while there was commercial revenue of €712,000 in addition to that.
Overall income for the provincial council in 2019 was an impressive €9m.
However, after costs were paid there was a surplus of €2.6m, of which €2.4m was redistributed back to schools and units all over Munster. This left the Council with a final surplus of just €237,000.
"As everyone knows the bulk of all the GAA's money goes back to clubs for developments, grants and so forth," Ryan added.
"Whatever we take in is all consumed at the other end and the Association does not hold massive reserves.
"The national accounts at every Congress clearly state where the money goes and that remains the case through the lockdown.
"When the games resume, clubs will be looked after and that’s what it’s all about."
GAA bosses are holding weekly meetings with Government officials and hope that their call for further financial assistance will be looked upon favourably.
"From a Munster point of view the round-robin hurling system makes a huge difference to us," Ryan continued.
"The Munster hurling championship, in my eyes, is the prime competition in the GAA at the moment as all the counties are very competitive with one another and the brand of hurling they play is so exciting.
"Equally, though, look what the Munster football final between Cork and Kerry does for Killarney. All of those potential games being up in the air makes things so uncertain, but we will work on the best we can.
"I thought John Horan’s interview on The Sunday Game gave great clarity and he answered the questions that people wanted. We know now the latest is that we work away until 20 July and see what happens then.
"As we speak, we are hoping, not hopeful, that based on plan laid out by John, we could have something going games-wise in October, November and December.
"If that was the case – and it was safe to do so – we would totally support it. Obviously, the risk of harm will have to be taken away.
"But we have the people and the experience to turn around a championship and play it off within a short time," he concluded.
