For comparative purposes, Concern would be an organisation with a similar turnover. I believe, if I am correct, that €128,000 is paid to the CEO. If one looks at it in terms of the Irish set-up, and we looked at it prior to Mr. Poole bringing in the information, well in excess of 70% of the income is funded by the taxpayer.

A lot of the contracts are public in nature. Why did Rehab persist in applying an industry benchmark as distinct from the charities sector?
