That is not the question. The conclusion that Mr. Toland came to was not that things could be done better. It was quite a hard hitting report and it spoke of "a closed, secretive and silo driven culture." I am concerned that the acting Secretary General cannot agree with the findings of the independent report. If we do not accept the failures, how do we implement changes?

The next issue highlighted in the report is was significant leadership and management problems. Is this something with which Ms McPhillips can identify after 29 years working in the Department?
