My questions are not designed to catch Ms Quinn out. I respect that this organisation has an unusual set up, which is not a negative. It is also a relatively young organisation and, sometimes, there is a fear that such an organisation will fall between two stools. I used to be the chairman of a committee and the reason I ask these specific questions is to make sure there is public confidence that the organisation is not falling between stools and that everything is tendered for and complies with public procurement guidelines, especially as the organisation moves into a space where the majority of its funding will come from the taxpayer. Data protection is a serious issue as well when it comes Benefacts.
