My question is a fair one and it has still not been answered. Not allowing any changes to be even proposed for six-year periods of time means the people in power get to stay in power without being challenged. It does not mean that Comhaltas is unstable. Brendan's answer does not even address the issue.

If he doesn't know the answer, there are people in that organisation that do - but they are not telling us. It's not a matter of semantics, it's a matter of democracy. And it's a question I still want an answer to.
