Before the clock starts, as the Cathaoirleach mentioned all the witnesses who are coming today, we also invited the former CEO of the Peter McVerry Trust, Pat Doyle, and he wrote to us to indicate that, since 2023, the board had told him not to speak about the Peter McVerry Trust. He also said that he had no comment on the Comptroller and Auditor General report. It seems those are the reasons he has decided not to attend today. I wish to clarify that for the record.
