Ms Nóirín O'Sullivan:

I will point the Deputy to the evidence of what we did from 2015 onwards. We immediately actioned what was brought to our attention. In that period, we were able to deal with the 19 recommendations in Mr. Kelly's audit report. As the committee heard through me from the CAO, we will be in a position to have all of the 19 recommendations implemented by the end of this year. That is the unravelling of the complicated infrastructure and financial accounting architecture that were put in place over an almost 40-year period. That does not happen easily. It is a daunting task. I must commend the work of Mr. Nugent and his steering group, which has managed to do that, and Mr. Kelly and his audit team, which was able to undertake the audit in the intervening period. This demonstrates the commitment of this executive and management team to ensuring that, not only in terms of the college matters, but all matters, we turn over the stones, identify the issues, bring them to the surface and deal with them in an open and transparent manner. That has been our intention at the committee at all times. The evidence trail in the intervening period will show that that is what we have done.
