It is the current board. They are good questions but it would be appropriate to address them to the board, the CEO and the chairman. I have very specific and limited roles, as does the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, and they have to do with assenting to, or otherwise, the communication of the board in respect of the appointment of a CEO. I received a communication which I assumed, when it came from the chairman, was coming on behalf of the board.
