I agree with Dr. Love on that point, as I think we all would. All the governance procedures are in place to avoid these types of investigations. We agree with Dr. Love and we see the gaps every time the organisations come before us. It is particularly shocking to see it in the third level sector, which is one of the most privileged sectors, where there should not be any difficulties.

The regulation and compliance should be dominant. I am not sure if I am correctly interpreting the phrasing in Dr. Love's letter. Does he mean there is an absence of regulation and compliance where they should be dominant?
