I wanted to clarify that. I have a couple of questions for Mr. McGarry regarding the board. It will have 15 members. Up until fairly recently, under statutes of the House, different interest groups had to be represented on the board. Different bodies had a right to appoint to the board, including An Taisce and other groups. Will Mr. McGarry briefly outline what was the situation? If 12 new members are on the board, as Ms Buckley outlined, will it still carry over that those organisations will be represented and, briefly, who are they?
