Mr. Francis Doherty:

Actually, the board had approved a policy where it was the responsibility of the deputy CEO. The deputy CEO would tell one of the regulators - I think it was AHBRA - that they had no idea that they were responsible for that as part of that policy. In effect, the external auditor of the Peter McVerry Trust prepared the management accounts for the CEO on a monthly basis, prepared the limited financial reports that went to the board, and also had control of the fixed asset register even after resigning as auditor of the organisation.
