That is the first concern. Had the cash flow or the financial operational management not become an issue, it is likely that we might not have discovered the many other areas such as the co-mingling of donations, restricted and unrestricted funds, and issues of poor governance decisions by the board and so on. For the Charities Regulator, that must be a lesson in the sense that had the day-to-day operational challenges of cash flow and meeting budgets not been flagged, we would not have known about the other areas. Is that something Ms Delaney has reflected on?
