Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration (3 Jul 2014) Shane Ross: I follow what Deputy O'Donnell said about Mr. Goulding whom I have known for a long time. I thank him very much for attending. It is brave. It must have been a difficult and embarrassing time for Mr. Goulding, particularly because of his family connection with the body, to see it fall from grace in such a manner. I know he accepts some responsibility for it. The fact he attended the...
