I am glad he did. I have recognised that. I have read the minutes. I saw that it was discussed and that the board took it seriously. It was a very sensible thing to do, but it is not a good way in which to have to run an organisation. I am not getting a clear answer as to why the money was not paid over beforehand. In any case, that is fine.

My questions to Ms Downes are not personal in any way. The salary and administration costs are all set out. Was there a period when two CEOs were being paid? Can anyone respond to me on that? Did it ever happen that two CEOs were being paid at the same time; the acting CEO and the non-acting CEO.
