Ms Oonagh McPhillips:
No. In fact, none of the external international bodies expressed specific concern about our scheme. However, they expressed concern about the schemes in general, and these types of programmes in general, and their overall effect. They did not say, "You must do this in Ireland". In fact, we would be satisfied that we were running it to the best of our ability and with a reasonable degree of governance and so forth.
