I know that I am not an auditor or anything like it - I am only a lay person - but I could not find it in the system. It should be explained to the public that the figure is included in the sum of €8.9 million.
I want to talk about the audit committee. It did not sit in 2017 and there was no chairman. That was also controversial at the time. Has the position changed? Is the audit committee now in place and has a chairman been appointed? Does it meet on a regular basis?
