My observation to Mr. Moynes is to say that between the HEA and the Department there seems to be a kind of attitude of, "It was not us". Forgetting the new legislation of 2022, there is a serious failing between the two organisations given that there is a litany of reports from 2015 onwards. It seems that the Department funds the HEA. The HEA funds universities. This particular university has had a litany of issues and yet nobody seems to be able to say they spotted this, they intervened early on and some of this could have been thwarted.
