In Professor Donnelly's analysis, he handled the matter appropriately, which is fine. However, the Comptroller and Auditor General prepared the report and seems to have a different view of how it should have been handled. In fact, there seems to be no record of notes having been taken at the two formal meetings between very senior people in the institute. At paragraph 3.28, the report states, "Furthermore, the Institute stated that a review of consultancy work [was] undertaken by Aceno Ltd". Was Professor Donnelly a shareholder of the company in that year?
