With respect, I have three young children and there are other people here who have children. If I was a parent involved in any set-up about any individual - I am not referencing a specific individual - and if I felt that people in senior management in the FAI had let me down as a parent, by not implementing proper safeguarding procedures, I would be offended and upset.

I will move to Ms Pakes because she is the only person who has answered a question so far. When did she become aware of the safeguarding complaint she acknowledged?
