Catherine Connolly (Galway West, Independent) | Oireachtas source

It is great to hear in the 21st century that she is independent. That is reassuring. I am simply going back on what was said on the last occasion. What happened to gender representation on the board of Bord na gCon? When Indecon recommended that the members of the board serve so many terms. I know that the board members have said repeatedly that politicians have failed to bring in the appropriate legislation. Could Bord na gCon not have taken the best of the recommendations, which they did in respect of other recommendations, why did they not implement the recommendation that the board be limited to three years?
