Mr. Brian Kavanagh:

There were a number of interesting recommendations that were useful in terms of the nature of how board meetings are run, the types of papers that are presented to the board and the format in which they are presented. The most significant recommendation was that the board would conduct its own needs analysis every time an appointment was coming up, that it would look at itself in the mirror to examine skill set gaps and communicate them with the Department and the Minister when the nomination process was being looked at.
