Representatives of the HEA are in today. Michael Kelly will be in but he will be talking about happens now with regard to WIT. The obvious question based on what the Comptroller and Auditor General has just read out is what role the HEA has with regard to governance when it comes to Waterford Institute of Technology. When he continually points out those things and reports on them, does he register and communicate that to the HEA and does he ask for a response with regard to the governance issues? Very basic and fundamental financial auditing issues continually arise. Is that something the office does on a continual basis with the HEA because it seems to be a recurring theme?
