Mr. Barry O'Brien:

Mr. Cregan indicates that the CRC's memorandum of association "allows its income, whencesoever derived, to be applied for payment of reasonable and proper remuneration of any officer in return for services actually rendered". Obviously, the payment of ex gratiaamounts of the magnitude paid in the above case would not appear to be in line with the memorandum on a number of issues. First, they are not being paid for actual services rendered.
