Ms Oonagh Buckley:
As I said in my statement, there was a big influx of SHD applications over the end of 2021 and into 2022, with a particular peak in April 2022. At the time those applications were coming in, the capacity of the board to take decisions on them was falling because board members were no longer in a position to take decisions.
