I thank all of the delegates for their frankness. The meeting has been very helpful. Ms Keane and Ms O'Shea, in particular, had to be careful about the legal issues involved, but they demonstrated in their remarks how they could still be very helpful and frank. It is possibly a lesson for the people who did not partake in the Moran inquiry that they could still have been helpful without crossing the line on any legal issue or proceedings elsewhere.

I was in attendance at the committee meeting referred to. That is what prompted the question I asked. There were many platitudes, but there was also a lot of tension. Both barrels were opened on a number of occasions. In the context of the funding of 30%, there was a clear indication given that a compliment was almost made in respect of accepting the funding from the Government and the Irish Sports Council. Even if it had been withdrawn at that stage, it would probably have been stated it would not have made much of a difference and that the organisation would have proceeded anyway.

On the proposal for the honorarium in 2009, reference was made to the treasurer. Who was the treasurer of the OCI at the time?
