The issue of secondment is dealt with in paragraph 4.12, which states: "Waterford Institute of Technology does not have a policy on part-time secondments or how those on part-time secondments have their time monitored to ensure they work the hours specified in their contracts." Paragraph 4.11 states:

FeedHenry Ltd reimbursed Waterford Institute of Technology in respect of the salary of one staff member. The individual was seconded from the Institute to FeedHenry Ltd on a half-time basis from 1 September 2011. ... Total payments of €187,000 were received by the Institute in respect of this staff member.

Is Mr. McCarthy making the point that there is no evidence of what work was done?
