Let me preface my next remark by saying that I am not a fan of the moratorium, which is hugely damaging to public services, or the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest legislation as it has been designed and passed by the Oireachtas, but that is neither here nor there for the purposes of this discussion. The fact is that the OSi cannot and should not have any misconception within its board or anywhere else that it can defy the law or that it can set aside the moratorium that has hit the public services like a hammer. There is the issue of the bonus, but there is a much larger issue that I hope will be addressed in respect of the merger, which I want to move on to.

Mr. Bray says OSi is supportive of this merger and mentioned a subgroup or subgroups or working groups. One of them is composed of the three CEOs of the bodies in question. Can I assume that when the merger takes place there will be a single CEO for the new merged entity? Is that Mr. Bray's understanding?
