When the financial mistakes were made in Limerick, the chairman of the board was a well-recognised entrepreneur. The mistakes were at that stage when he was there. We will not agree on this. I am looking for an inclusive board. The mistakes made in Limerick were due to a lack of governance. However, that was several boards ago.

I am a board member of a private track. I know we will not have a voice at the board and will not get what we would consider a fair distribution of the resources. This will have an impact on the future of private tracks. It is regrettable that with the expanded board membership, no accommodation will be made for the private tracks.
