Governance and Child Protection Policy: Scouting Ireland
4:10 pm
Mr. Martin Burbridge:
Part of the reason the work that we have been doing on governance, in terms of reviewing it and how we might change, has taken as long is that we have been working with people outside of Scouting Ireland in order to do it. We are open. I mentioned earlier that we will be proposing that there should be some places on the board of directors for people who are not directly appointed by the members of Scouting Ireland. That is a huge change.
