A meeting was held in February 2013 agreeing a pay package. The accounts were signed off in May 2013 and then, by coincidence, these payments of €742,000 were all paid in June 2013. Is that correct? They were all paid after the accounts were signed off. There are a lot of coincidences, a lot of timing and dates after things have been signed off. People were still applying for front-line services. Half the 2013 annual income of the CRC friends and supporters was being raided for one individual who was leaving. Mr. Conlan is telling me that he was a member of the board at the time when this agreement was signed, that he became the chief executive officer, but he was not aware of it.
