Is Mr. Fraser satisfied with everything he said to Deputy Aylward and in his brief opening remarks in terms of the financial controls, processes and procedures in place?
There is that question, however, regardless of the clear audit opinion. I understand the internal audit committee did not meet because it did not have a chairperson. I will not call it alarming but it raises a question or two about the process. The nature of the absence is not my business. From a financial control perspective, however, it begs the question what procedures were put in place to compensate for the lack of an internal audit committee. Will Mr. Fraser comment on that?
