Having been waiting until what is nearly the end, I note that many good questions have been asked by many of my colleagues. That said, I will see what I can do.

As I said here last week, I was an auditor for many years, but I also worked through procurement processes for various bodies and national organisations and oversaw procurement. Therefore, I would like to think I can bring some of my expertise to the table.

Would Mr. Ó Coigligh see what has occurred as a failure of governance overall in the Arts Council? Does he have faith that this will not be an ongoing issue such that we will not be facing something like this in the future?
