Okay. I just find it difficult to reconcile the stonewalling of a request from the Department when so much of the funding is derived from the Department and Mr. O’Loughlin’s opening statement that the IRHB “abides by the underlying principles of good governance - accountability, transparency [and] probity”. We are not seeing that transparency at all.

I will turn to the issue around the exit package. There is this contribution from the Turf Club which does not appear as a contribution from the Turf Club but gets folded in to IHRB’s general funding. Do I understand that correctly? It does not appear in that payment to the exiting CEO. It is not detailed as a separate contribution from the Turf Club, is it?
