These are unusual times as we all progress from one video-conference to another and use words like 'Zoom' and 'furlough,' which barely existed in our vocabulary just a few weeks ago.

The overall aim is to create a well-managed and flexible Institution. My own involvement in these activities began in October 2018 when the Finance Review team was formed. We reported our findings in April last year and we are now well advanced with implementing the changes that were recommended.
