That is the point I was making. I am not happy with Mr. Watt coming back telling me the Department of Education and Skills cannot micro-manage. I am asking how we improve it. I am putting my hands up welcoming the Comptroller and Auditor General saying there has been generally good compliance but on the specific issues that have been raised, I am not leaving here today confident in the belief that this could not happen again tomorrow in those third level institutions. That is my first point.

On the second page of the report, the Comptroller and Auditor General comments on the second institution. There is some confusion here with respect to the Health Service Executive, HSE, in that there is reference to the Department of Education and Skills and the HSE. The only point I want to make about it is that they were significantly at variance-----
