Mr. John Cregan:

I took a decision. I was appointed in December and began to work through various issues in January. I had clear terms of reference and was able to conduct the business I had to do with the assistance of the staff on the basis of the documentation available. I respected the decision of the board members to resign and left it at that. Mr. Goulding was particularly helpful in working with members of the company in making appointments to the new board.
