Exceptional Funding of the Peter McVerry Trust: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Francis Doherty:

No. It was not done, certainly when I was there, up until 13 October. There were actions that my deputy and I took. We wrote to the trustees and the chair of the Peter McVerry Trust on 18 September 2023, where we asked them to take specific actions and to review the actions of former auditors and former staff. The response we got was that it was not something the trustees were willing to look at or take on at that point. I am not sure at what time it was referred to any third party.
