Public Accounts Committee

Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015

9:00 am

Mr. Phil Meaney:

Yes. The board discussed it with him. He was very supportive of that idea to the extent that he came along one night and made himself available for four hours to meet the different components of the industry. When I got involved in this industry, the one thing I wanted to do, with the board and the executives, was unite the industry. It has been an impossible task. The idea was that by putting this in place, we would get in all the different colours and all the people with different ideas, but it does not seem to have worked.
