Either the board was misled, which is a possibility, or Mr. Horgan had been dealing and in communication with another company in which Ms Kerins's family - her brother and her husband - had dealings in respect of coffins. She is not here, so we cannot answer that question. When she is here, presumably she will answer that question.

We have an extract from Rehab's audit committee meeting of 8 February 2010. We have moved on a couple of months. Mr. Hogan explained to the meeting that Ms Kerins had introduced the project, but had withdrawn herself from commercial discussions. However, we have been told today that it was not Ms Kerins who introduced the project. Mr. Hogan's colleague, Mr. Poole, indicated that it was one of the employee directors who devised the notion and went to Ms Kerins with it. Is that a more correct account of how this came to be?
