Mr. John Treacy:

I said to the board and to Mr. Mulvey that I would be happy to stay for another year, if it was required. There was obviously an issue in respect of the pandemic and we were allocating €85 million in funding. We needed a bit of continuity, therefore, and that was part of the business case. The Olympic Games are next year and the European cross-country championships are also on the campus next year. Those aspects were of critical importance and I wanted to see those events out. It was my intention to leave at the end of this year and I would love to have been leaving this year but circumstances changed.
