Mr. Gavin Lawlor:

I do not disagree with the Deputy. There is a great deal of confusion when one uses the term "board" in the community but there is a governance function which sits with the board, the chair and the deputy chair. This is also a problem because with a board of ten members, with two of them having non-planning functions, where they have to look after the budget, staff, management and so on and so forth, there is a very significant opportunity for distraction.
