Mr. Dónall Ó Cualáin:

In addition to the surpluses that built up, income generated was also generated from courses in the college, separate and totally apart from the student population. There was income in the restaurant and the shop. In any modern-day look at that, one would have to say that is public money. If the original seed money was public money, then anything that came from it would be public money. I think that is the point the auditor made in his report. We are trying to resolve that and ensure that we get to a space where that will be the case. If money is required - and it will be because we still have to provide all these facilities which are part of any modern training facility - we have to find ways of doing that which are completely captured within the public financial framework and that are voted and accountable.
