Ms Anne O'Connor:
No. I would reiterate that we have been very clear from the outset of this process that our concerns have not related to the actual service provided. The work that has been done by the interim CEO since he has gone in has highlighted that again in terms of the service that is provided. It was the relationship that changed on foot of the additional funding that was able to highlight the concerns, their lack of response and their refusal. As they had previously committed to engage in an external review themselves, we had asked for that. We had offered to fund that. We were told that it was happening. It did not happen. There were all those things that came with the extra funding that really highlighted the difficulties.
