Mr. Ciaran Kirwan:

We all expected a team would be selected. Obviously, the coaching team and our Olympic squad had just come back from the Olympic Games. I am sure the Senator accepts that. It was because the Olympic Games were scheduled to take place last year but delayed until this year. The world championships has never before been held within two months of the Olympic Games. That was an issue. They were not selected. A team was already scheduled to go to a training camp at the headquarters of Team GB in Sheffield. Mr. Carruth, our CEO, who is attending the meeting remotely, as is our national operations manager, suggested we should delay the non-selection of a team and let the squad go over and then the coaches could go over and make a determination. The coaches went there and made that determination and the team was entered.
