Creating demand is what the Legal Aid Board should be about. Mr. McDaid has to manage within the restrictions of the board's budget and I have a fair bit of sympathy for that. Having a good website is a very static, passive thing. I think I have a good website. People will not naturally come to my website to find out what is happening just because it is there. It is clear from what Mr. McDaid has said that he does not really see it as the board's role to look at how things are performing or to report back on how it is working.
