I accept that. How does that sit as a concept with the HSE? Does it not continue to cause a difficulty for the following reasons? In that scenario, the roles would be separated and this would mean the group CEO could continue on his current salary. However, would it not also mean we would have a publicly funded entity with its top management answerable to A. N. Other structure that is privately funded, financed and salaried and that manages, albeit on the same campus, private entities? Is there not a problem with that? I would like the HSE's view on that, but also that of Professor Whelan.

I understand these matters are being discussed and have not been signed off on.
