Breandán,

Now that you're back answering questions, perhaps you could answer those which I asked on 3rd April.

Specifically in relation to the following:

1. How many of the documents submitted by the branch for the attention of the Ardchomhairle members, during the 2 months prior to the branch's dissolution, were actually distributed by Labhrás & Co to the Ardchomhairle members?

2. How can you have no idea on what basis Clontarf applied for a VAT refund when, as you know, Comhaltas HQ worked closely with the branch in agreeing the VAT application process and they supplied most of the information required.

3. In relation to your claims on the democratic nature of the Ardchomhairle:
What do you mean by 'their home districts'? Please specify the home districts.
What do you mean by 'accountable to'? Please specify how they are accountable to their home districts?
Can you tell me who elected the 31 voluntary officers?
How many members were co-opted onto the Ardchomhairle?

I hope you're not going to spout Labhrás' line about the Ardchomhairle being elected by the general membership. How can the general membership vote for them when HQ won't even divulge who they are?
As you say that 'the membership of the central council would be public record', I'm sure you can give their details without any problem.

Once again, looking forward to answers to my questions.
