I am trying to understand the process. In this instance, which is one example, the company was sold for a significant amount of money, of which the institute received a tiny fraction. We have been told that the institute is in deficit. The core funding for the institute has also been cut quite substantially since 2008. In terms of public accountability and people who would be in senior positions in an institution and who might play a role as a director or shareholder, surely we have a right to know whether the person benefited and by how much? How can we find out that information? Is the information in the public domain?
