The findings of the board, and the questions in terms of its own performance, has an average rating of four out of five or 80%, which are Saddam Hussein approval ratings. I do not think that they deserved a rating of 80% but that is my own view.

On Toy Show , the Musical, earlier I referred to scapegoating and people being thrown under the bus. Mr. Coveney was here in July and dealt with a lot of negativity about Toy Show, the Musical. He might have been directly in charge but I asked him on the day whether anyone shouted "Stop" or say "No". Did anyone on the board raise objections prior to the musical being a flop? Did the issue come before the board?
