Yes. I do not for one second allege that there has been wrongdoing by anybody. I am concerned about processes, policies and procedures. I have heard what Mr. Ó Foghlú said and I get the issue of encouraging researchers to start up companies and commercialise some of the work. Is a distinction drawn between researchers who have no input into governance, management and oversight and those who do play a role in this regard? Does the Secretary General see that it is important to make this distinction? Does he view the role of the head of research in an institute to be demanding?
