I have given three or four exact examples. I suspect I am not getting an answer. Perhaps Mr. Woods will be able to help here. Is there a lacuna here? Are people being put on a board without having any legal liability? It is not a limited company. If it was, the Director of Corporate Enforcement could come after the members of the board if they did something wrong. The Garda Síochána or some other body could come after anyone who acted fraudulently. I am not suggesting that will happen. These things do happen in life. Are the members of the board exempt from all of this? Is there a cloak of exemption from all the responsibilities that apply to everyone else we see in here?
