There is another issue with regard to the unacceptable engagement with this committee. If we tolerate that, it will invite others to treat the committee with the same kind of disrespect and evasiveness we saw last week. This is not the first time the University of Limerick has been in. In fact, the university sector was the most prominent sector in the work of the previous Committee of Public Accounts. It is the one area you would expect leadership to come from. There is an ongoing issue here and we cannot just turn a blind eye to it.
