Is Mr. Quinn not accepting that he relied on the design team too much without challenge? That is what PwC stated. The quantity surveyor had a conflicting way of assessing figures and accounts, but the board, including Mr. Quinn as an expert, relied on it without any challenge in what was a new way of doing things. It was novel and no comparison was made with international standards, even though, according to the report, it was used internationally. The board did not go back to look at international reports. Is that right?
