That gap will end up costing us money if we are to resource that system. I understand the point about Pobal. I understand it more now that we have seen this correspondence insofar as the Department believes there is a gap in oversight or a gap in the scope of sufficient control. I do not have any serious evidence here to argue with it over that but it is not immediately obvious to me that Pobal would be the organisation to bridge that gap, or that it would assume this role, because I am not aware that it has done this kind of work in the past. We should keep this matter on the books because I am not happy with this answer.
