Ms McDonagh said in her statement that the De La Salle Brothers informed the archbishop that they are no longer able to act as trustees. When and how was the archdiocese informed of that? Was it communicated through correspondence or face-to-face meetings? When was that message conveyed to the archbishop?

Ms McDonagh said that De La Salle is an outstanding campus with terrific grounds and yet, nobody has looked at it as an option in the context of this amalgamation. I understand that because it is not in the ownership of the archbishop, he cannot hire an architect to look at it to determine whether it would be a better option. Has the archdiocese had any discussion with the De La Salle Brothers about a possible amalgamation onto that campus rather than the Dominican one? If not, why not?
