The witnesses are giving us assurances that this is not going to happen again and are asking us to take them at face value. It is very difficult for us to take anything at face value from University of Limerick given that this is not the first occasion on which this has happened. There may well be different personnel involved, but we need to see evidence. We need to see evidence of the governance arrangements because it looks like there were people who treated the governing authority like a lapdog or some sort of rubber stamp. If that is the culture there, there is nothing to stop this from happening again. Are there any other issues of concern regarding transactions that have happened at University of Limerick?
