That is the type of openness I would like when the HEA comes in here. I would like it to set out the problems it is encountering. Statements that it is improving are not good enough. Of course, it has to improve. We all have to improve. It needs to set out the problems and say why the institutions are late.

Let us take another issue not mentioned in the opening statement, namely, the foundations and the consolidation of accounts. NUI Galway would be one of those. Mr. Brownlee mentioned it. Can he elaborate for me please?
