Mr. Denis Duggan:

Like I said, we do not get involved in their internal appointments for any consultants. They are autonomous and so are we. He has already met with one or two of the affiliates at this stage about their ongoing support of the high performance programmes. Again, they do not have a role in the internal appointments that HSI makes. As I said earlier, the Deputy must bear in mind that this is a role that until Mr. Jackman’s appointment had been filled by a senior member of HSI staff who is on an extended leave. It is not the case that this is a brand-new role that has been created. It is to cover someone who is on leave.
