J.O’Siocháin raised queries regarding drops in sponsorship from Innovate of €10,000. This was clarified by Auditor R O Coigligh that
€5000 for scholarships had been paid directly by Innovate to recipients for 2017 and 2018 and therefore there was a €10,000 drop this year
so that this could be reflected in the accounts.
J.O’Siocháin also wished for it to be the record that although there was a drop in income in the accounts, the net profit on the Development
