It is on the record that Sport Ireland was to come on board this year and that it was the turn of the FAI to be audited this year. If Sport Ireland only had its pre-March account audit skills in all this, do the witnesses think it would still be in a position to unearth what has now arisen? The officials say they have upped the ante regarding the auditing and the forensic accounting techniques for the audit going forward, unlike perhaps some other organisations. If they were still using the same pre-March audit techniques, do they think that if they went into the FAI headquarters tomorrow morning those techniques would be good enough to discover those discrepancies?
