Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis

Nexus Phase

Mr. Liam Kelleher:

No, no. There was a very broad base of membership around the country. The subscription income, in my time, at the peak, would have been more from subscriptions rather than from training programmes. The training programmes, when you ... were health and safety and were management services and upgrading management in the industry. That revenue would have been about 20% of the organisation in the mid-2000s and in many ways the costs of providing it were a substantial part of the revenue - when you take hotels into account, when you take lecturers into account ... lecturer's fees. And those training programmes were designed, as I say, to integrate in with the services we were providing to members.
