I hope Mr. Elliott does not mind me asking this question, and correct me if I am wrong, but is the fact that there was not a designated safeguarding officer in place from 2017 the reason a spotlight of concern has been shone from the Department of Children and Youth Affairs, DCYA, which is a main funder, and Tusla?
