Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

We have a pilot under way whereby the code of practice for State bodies, the code of governance, is analysed centrally, in this departmental unit to see how each of the State bodies, as in the national State bodies and not the ETBs or the higher education institutions, have fared and to see where there were gaps and challenges, and where the Department or the agency would have gaps. We have communicated an analysis to the chairs of each of those bodies. There is a dialogue with the bodies about that. This was an attempt to do a corporate approach on how we were working with our State bodies. It is part of the approach of bringing together the national State bodies, the ETBs and the higher education institution perspective.
