If it were Dunnes Stores, for example, every unit would be reporting to a single administrative section. Otherwise, how would one know what is going on all over the place? Not knowing is the problem. With respect, the HEA does not know what is going on all over the place. It has a general view on it but it should be borne in mind that the specific amounts of money being used, in light of the numbers of complaints or allegations we have received, is significant. Both the Department and HEA should be carrying out a more in-depth analysis of where the money is going and how it is being spent. That analysis is a good management tool. Does Mr. Gallagher agree?
