Mr. Paul Cooke:

I thank the Senator for his good wishes. As Mr. Bonner alluded to, board members should, ideally, have all the facts, which we did not. I said afterwards that I was disappointed I did not have them but that ship has sailed. All we can do is change what we do going forward. After the AGM, Tony Keohane, the new chairperson, said that it would not happen under his style. My fellow board members know me. I do not exactly hide my views. Going forward, I will ensure openness and transparency. We have moved a long way, for example, from the 2009 AGM, when I was handed the accounts of the FAI on my way into the meeting. Even at Saturday's AGM, there was questioning and we had a row but that was good. If we can continue that, it would be very good.
