Public Accounts Committee
Special Report No. 104 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Waterford Institute of Technology - Development and Disposal of Intellectual Property in FeedHenry
9:00 am
Mr. William Beausang:
There has been a significant strengthening but obviously we want to ensure we are extracting the learning from how things played out. The issue is that nobody will claim that the framework in place during that decade was detailed and comprehensive, and while the Comptroller and Auditor General's report has identified areas where there were requirements, they were not implemented. We can hold that we have a detailed and comprehensive framework in place now, but we must understand and be assured that it is being properly executed by the institutes and the universities.
