Apologies. I am referring to pre-2018 all the time. For clarity, there were no disclosures when there was a draft policy in place or a full policy in place, pre-2018 and so on. I respectfully ask the Department, through the Higher Education Authority, HEA, or whatever process, to investigate this matter. I had not intended to ask this question at all, but based on the evidence heard today, there appears to be a serious issue about the clarity required on whether there were any forms of disclosure in 2018 in the formal or in the draft policy. I am formally asking the Department to investigate issue with regard to the Cork Institute of Technology. Whether this is done through the HEA or directly through the Department is the Department's own business, but I ask it, please, to look into it. This is necessary based on the evidence given here today because there seems to be a certain amount of confusion and information that needs to be looked into. This is a request.
