Imelda Munster: If an individual member of a telecommunications board, for example, made the decision in 75 out of 100 cases, would Mr. Walsh consider that unusual? No one in this room would view that as random. Would Mr. Walsh oversee the situation? Were something like that to happen, why would it not be picked up on?

Imelda Munster: I wish to ask about a board member failing to restate a disclosure. The change is verified by the board. I am curious. If an Oireachtas Member declared three houses one year but only one the next, we would rightly expect it to be investigated. Where is the board's oversight? There are nine board members and they submit disclosures every year. Is that correct?

Imelda Munster: There would not be a wad of documentation that would take months to go through. Does Mr. Walsh have oversight of that as chair? Would he look back over eight or ten years to see whether anything had changed that might ring alarm bells, for example, omissions? Has he encountered omissions and did he look into them?

Imelda Munster: If the current audit of cases discovers that decisions were made incorrectly or contained some irregularity or if some flaw comes to notice, what can the board do about them or can it only tell people to take An Bord Pleanála to court at the taxpayers' expense, which would cost the State millions of euro more in cases?
