Mr. Ciaran Kirwan:

It was the only province to do that. When its representatives were asked to produce evidence of the correct procedures being followed at their meetings, what was on the agenda, when was it proposed and who seconded it, no documentation was forthcoming. As the Deputy is probably aware, there was an election in Connacht. The day after the election they gave us back a one-liner telling us they now recognise the board. There was no further explanation.
