Ms Madeleine Delaney:

We talk about fulfilling donor intention. It is a bit like restricted funding. Essentially, the money must be used for the purpose for which it was given. That is obviously a fundamental part of a charity trustee's duty. It would appear from what was found by the inspectors, both ours and those from AHBRA, that the controls were not in place to ensure that would happen. Even if there were controls, they were being circumvented. Perhaps questioning, and an awareness to question or ask about these things, was lacking.
