Catherine Connolly: Is it the case that no income was recorded after 2007 by the charity when income was generated in the form of donations? That is not clear to me from the Department’s post-project review in any event. Did the regulator confirm in its report that the charity in question raised moneys from donations?

Catherine Connolly: Human nature being what it is and trustees doing their best. The mistake was made with the Morris tribunal that we thought those activities were confined to that county.
