I thank Ms Timmons.

I understand the level of complexity in regard to how this structure works but Mr. Doyle is ultimately the principal officer of the Department with financial responsibility. The Department is responsible for funding these organisations, even though it is through the local authority. The funding does not come from the local authority but from the Department. Is that correct? I do not have much time. I just want a "Yes" or "No".
