Welsh Rugby Union 'still sorry' after sexism probe criticism
Mr Engelhardt is a WRU independent non-executive director and a former chief executive of Admiral Insurance.
Speaking on the BBC's Walescast podcast, Mr Engelhardt described the BBC investigation as "sensationalist".Mr Walker said Mr Engelhardt had been one of the biggest advocates for governance change at the WRU. "It's for him to say whether he got it wrong or whether he could have been even more positive about the need for changes," Mr Walker said, pointing out that he did discuss that need in the podcast too.
Mr Walker added that the organisation had been working "flat out" for "probably 12 or 18 months" to make governance changes.Image caption,Mr Walker, the former Wales international wing, replaced Steve Phillips when the then WRU chief executive stepped down following the BBC investigation.
Tonia Antonazzi, MP for Gower and former Wales international said she was "disappointed" Henry Engelhardt "hasn't come back and put more context on what he said", adding what he said was "was truly unacceptable"." and she knew of "others who have experienced it and were unable to go on to the programme because of the pressure put on them as a result".
