I thank the witnesses for joining us this morning. If they do not mind, I am going to pick up on Deputy Geoghegan's points on CEO positions. What I am struggling to get my head around a little is that despite the policy of the Government and Department on not wanting to extend CEO contracts automatically, we hear there is legal entitlement to extend them. I am not talking about any individual but about the role of CEO.
Are we relying on people to not avail of their right? Is that the reason this is not endemic? How many CEOs has Mr. Moloney received similar requests about in the past 12 months?
