The board has allowed this scenario to happen. In racing parlance, Dee Forbes is out under the traps and gone. She is gone with the wind to play. It is shocking to expect us to listen to this. The board was not able to answer why it accepted her resignation. I am an employer. I understand how difficult situations can be as regards disciplinary proceedings, but you do not allow someone to cut the umbilical cord because it suits everyone. That is what is happening. Who is the board loyal to?
