I will finish up. My last question is on conflict of interest. The Quigley report from 2013 identified very serious issues that were not just financial problems, some of which I can pick at random. This might not be fair but tell me if I am being unfair. Financial reporting by WIT management to the governing body was inadequate. Two people were employed by a company, they were still being paid by Waterford Institute of Technology and the money was not recouped from the company. There is a whole list and this is why the report was, of its nature, such a big report.
