So no one shared that with you.

I think you are making a lot of this up as you go along.

When you were all in post, you were at the top of the organisation. There was someone above you, but you were almost there. A bit more self-reflection may be helpful.

Ms Miller, in response to Mr Marra and to other questions today, you have made it sound as though, if you had just grabbed a couple of missed opportunities, the court could have done more. Page 53 of the Gillies report says:

“Court failed in its governance responsibilities in June 2024”.

You had half a year to get on top of the situation before, finally, the court was updated on 12 November. This was not just a couple of missed opportunities by you and your board; it was a chronic failure to take them over a series of not days or weeks but months. Do you accept that?

Did you shut down some, because you felt that they were not relevant?

Mr Fotheringham, was the man to your right, Dr McGeorge, part of that hostile environment?
