I understand that but let us say that Sport Ireland, that is, the taxpayer and the Government, is giving €2.7 million per year, then surely there should be such an independent board member. I say this is a difficulty on behalf of the Government. Surely there should be an independent member on the board in the interest of the outcome of the Genesis report and in the interests of fairness. Is the FAI be open to putting an independent member onto the board who may come from some Government Department, given that so much money is going into the FAI?
