I have just under two minutes left. There is one point I would like to address with Mr. Duggan in relation to the recent appointment of Bernard Jackman to a role in Horse Sport Ireland. Was that discussed with the affiliates before the appointment? Was it advertised? Who specifically identified the need for this role? Did it come from the affiliates? Where did this role come from? This is no slight against Bernard Jackman, whom I greatly enjoyed watching as a rugby player.
