It is Dublin and Dún Laoghaire today and a couple of weeks ago a significant number of education and training board accounts were presented on a particular slide, with the same recurring theme of poor controls. I noted a number of recurring cases. It was not once-off and it was across the board and a cultural occurrence. After five years, what is the opinion of the Comptroller and Auditor General? Can he see it changing? I know he has had personal engagement with a number of the chief executive officers, who have themselves complained about the challenge they face. Will it change?
